Tyler Nail is a dynamic Americana performer known for masterfully crafted lyrics, impressive guitar technique, and insightful stories. With his haunting songs and raspy vocals, the North Carolina artist has established himself as a major contributor to the songwriter landscape.

Informed by the rich history of American roots music, Nail's music is genuine, deep, and personal. His ability to tell stories carries the audience through feelings of longing, love, sorrow, and gratitude. Nail possesses a unique capacity to establish a strong emotional connection with his audience, often evoking tears and laughs in a single song. Nail skillfully combines complex musicianship with the classic familiar sounds of Americana music. His compositions are full of catchy melodies and snazzy guitar licks. His words conjure vivid images of Tobacco fields, gardens, family members, and wide-open roads – in other words, the Americana dream.

Since reemerging from a long touring hiatus, Nail has been enthralling audiences with material spanning his catalog of over 200 songs, including selections from his most recent singles and albums. In the 2019 release of Life Lessons, Nail proved his exceptional narrative talent could shine even with a heavy full-band behind him. Eddie Huffman (author of John Prine; In Spite of Himself) called Life Lessons some of Nail's best work. Life Lessons explores the absurdities of life, love, and (most of all) modernity. In his follow-up single, I Don't Wanna Die Alone (2020), Nail looked the COVID-19 pandemic directly in the eye and spoke to his fear of death and the passage of time. This was followed by his EP, Devil, and his single, Someday, (both released in 2021), marking his shift back to the Americana sounds that he calls home.
