​Tyler Bryant Releases New Single ‘Screwed & Tattooed’
​

​For the two-time Grammy Award winner Tyler Bryant, the spontaneous creation of “Screwed & Tattooed” represents exactly what he envisioned when building his own studio space, a place where inspiration can be captured in real time. He has long favoured recordings that preserve the immediacy of a moment, valuing authenticity and human connection above polish, an approach he feels is more vital than ever in an increasingly AI era.
​
Tyler says “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. At the tail end of making Rodney’s latest album, ‘Airline Highway,’ we found ourselves sitting in my studio with a couple of acoustic guitars. We both have a deep appreciation for low down dirty blues and when my right thumb started riding the A string of my old Kalamazoo acoustic, Rodney started spitting out lines. We laughed this song into existence.

​Tyler continues.”My friends came over the next afternoon to jam and I pulled out this idea. It was recorded less than an hour later. 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 at the helm of Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown, Bryant is now forging a distinct path as a solo artist. Releasing music independently has given him the freedom to follow his creative instincts. Bryant describes this chapter as intuitive, unfiltered, and entirely self-directed.
