[@shawnsil89]

Who is still watching in 2023? I can't get enough of Tyler. He sings with so much soul behind his voice!

[@WildcatWarrior15]

The best part is just how much healthier he looks today. He seems in an all around better place, and that makes me happy. The time period of this video was not the best for him, from what I've heard.

[@brookesargent8249]

I'm OBSESSED with everything about his voice. He's very important.

[@Lynxpoot]

I keep coming back to this as well. It bums me out that his albums aren't just him and his guitar. It sounds so much better this way. Perhaps now that Oliver Anthony blew up, that authentic, acoustic sound can finally be embraced again by record labels. A guy like Childers, with all his soul and great songwriting, should be heard in his purest form.

[@kirstieisakoolkid]

@@LynxpootThat bum is nothing like Tyler and never will be. Please don’t compare the two of them.

His entire demeanor changed, his face lit up when he played Lady May. It was touching to see that the song fills his heart with joy like she probably does. That was cool.

[@jacobsmith3517]

Aman brother!

[@AtomicSleuths]

A huge part of being such an amazing performer like TC is being able to basically method act your emotions at the same time because the more you feel, the more you flow. As Tyler demonstrates by smashing all of his songs live

[@tuckermathews9625]

Great observation

[@jakeconner803]

That’s just what I was going to say! You can see the passion and genuineness in his face right when he starting singing lady may

I bet Senora May was standing where he was looking when he played it😂

[@johnrandom3332]

I’ve always thought i hate country. But no I guess I just hate “radio” country. Cause this is good stuff right here

[@Blade383210]

Yeah country is not bad at all. There is a lot of crap but too me it's like the same thing with Rap. If you are interested I would recommend Jason Isbell, Sturgil Simpson, or Chris Stapleton if you want to put your foot into the genre of Country music. Surgil and Jason are both great song writers while Chris just has an amazingly Bluesy voice

[@janetsanders8871]

Me too I mainly listen to some hard core shit like rock and metal. But I have noticed my KZbin playlist is all these characters of this style now. I done went Folk, Bluegrass, country. And loving it. Think I may write something like this because I am a guitar picker as well oh colter wall. But tyler is my favorite at the moment.

[@fletchermoore5428]

No my man. You hate "pop". The pop sound can get inserted into any genre as it becomes mainstream, that's where the term pop(ular) comes from. Country pop is garbage. Real country is great.

[@myoung5438]

This ain't country though

[@Essex626]

@@myoung5438 of course it is. This is the core of what country is. If this isn't country, then country doesn't mean anything at all. Look up Tyler Childers accepting his Americana award, and what he said there.

[@bigbenecu]

I saw Tyler at the Cat’s Cradle in Carrboro, NC with Colter Wall and it may have been one of the best shows I have ever seen. Colter opened and Tyler played for almost 3 hours straight after. It was incredible. They were playing in the smaller room and would go out and mingle between sets because there is no backstage area. They are awesome guys, awesome entertainers and awesome songwriters. Music in America has been polished to an annoying level, its about time we have some down dirty gritty music again and I think these two are good ambassadors of that movement.

[@a1m05tg0n3]

It's funny I listen to so much music, so many different kinds and genres, but every once in awhile I come across something so striking and simple that it gives pause. How did it take so long to find this how come it seems and sounds so familiar to other things I've enjoyed yet I haven't heard this until now. It just goes to show life never runs out of wonderful surprises if we are fortunate enough to look long enough.

These new prolific artists, Tyler Childers, Colter Wall, John Fullbright, Jason Isabell... They are the artists of today that echo the unfinished catalogs of Towns Van Zandt, John Prine, and Levon Helm.

[@gui-texzan7477]

freetickeys - Dwight Yoakam?

[@freetickeys]

There is plenty of good music from Kentucky. Bill Monroe was born here. He is the "Father of Bluegrass Music" Jean Ritchie was born here. She is considered the bridge between traditional and modern folk music. Roscoe Holcomb was born here. He was the inspiration for the term "high lonesome sound". J.D. Crowe was born here, as was Hylo Brown, Loretta Lynn, Tom T. Hall, Grandpa Jones, Darrell Scott, Ricky Skaggs, Keith Whitley, Merle Travis, Gary Stewart, Joan Osborne, The Everly Brothers and The Osborne Brothers. I could name a lot more. These are just most of the ones who've had the biggest effect on my musical journey. To hear another great Kentucky band check out my neighbors, The Pokeberries. The video is a montage with 3 Pokeberries songs. kzbin.info?o=U&video_id=J7YjRDpd1rw

[@theHumanBryno]

I like the names I recognize, I'll have to check out Chris Knight.

[@freetickeys]

I was turned onto Tyler's music by another Chris Knight fan. Just click on my moniker. It will take you to one of my favorite Chris Knight songs, "Down The River". It puts me to the mind of Tyler's "Banded Clovis". Chris's brother, Dirk, told me many years ago he knew Chris was going to make it in country music when Chris first played him "Down The River". Other Chris Knight songs you may want to check out for a start are "Little Victories" with John Prine, "Rural Route", "Becky's Bible", "Leaving Souvenirs", "Me And This Road", "It Ain't Easy Being Me", "Crooked Road", "William" or either of his versions of "Old Man".

And then Appalachian people get nothing but hate and derision from everyone (mostly people in cities) even though they're struggling. They get called white trash and whatever other insult by people who will then turn around and say they care about poor people.

I remember when I first heard this tiny desk, it was the first time I heard Tyler and man I was in for a treat! He is such a powerful songwriter, his lyrics are so heartfelt and the tone in his voice conveys raw emotion in an incredible way. The three songs here contrast beautifully. Nose on the Grindstone hits so hard and speaks the voice of thousands, while 22nd Winter is so descriptive and uplifting. Lady May is just incredibly sweet and you can really feel the love he has for her in the words and the expressions on his face while thinking about the words he is singing. This man can write songs like no one else and the world should be ashamed that his name isn’t in every household!
