Since launching his solo career, Tyler’s fanbase has grown from Sacramento supporting his independent release to singing a record deal and publishing agreement with Big Machine Music. The 2018 CMT Listen Up Artist has since moved to Nashville and become a road warrior, performing alongside some of country music’s top acts including Sam Hunt, Brett Eldridge, Dan + Shay and more!
