Are you one of those people that lives to listen to 70s rock to chill every so often? Then you might just like Tyler Bryant. We personally love it and this new track is one to boogie to while doing the housework, for sure.
Two time Grammy Award winning producer Tyler Bryant has dropped his fifth solo single, ‘Screwed & Tattooed’. The track was born out of a spontaneous jam session with country and blues legend Rodney Crowell, right at the tail end of Bryant producing Crowell‘s latest album, Airline Highway. When Bryant‘s thumb started riding the A string of his old Kalamazoo acoustic, Crowell started spitting out lines, and the song essentially laughed itself into existence. The next afternoon, Bryant pulled the idea out when friends came over to jam. Less than an hour later, it was recorded.
Bryant said: “It’s not everyday that you get to make up a tune with a hero. As a Texan, I grew up on Rodney Crowell‘s records. My early blues explorations landed 15 year old me at a party in California where I met Rodney for the first time. I had no idea then that, 19 years later, I’d be producing an album for him.”
He continued: “This is precisely the magic I hoped my studio would inspire for me and other artists. I’ve always been drawn to ‘in the moment’ captures when it comes to recording. Especially now that we have AI breathing down our necks. It’s time to be as real as humanly possible.”
After years fronting Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown, Bryant is now carving out his own path as a solo artist, releasing music independently and following his creative instincts without compromise. His Grammy wins came from producing Larkin Poe‘s Blood Harmony and Ruthie Foster‘s Mileage, so the man clearly knows how to capture something special on tape.
‘Screwed & Tattooed’ is out now on all digital platforms. Watch the official music video:
