Tyler Lance Walker Gill’s self titled solo debut is chocked full of honky tonk jukebox bangers. The type of honky tonk you’d belly-up with a sweaty wad of cash sitting in front of you – and the barkeep keeps ‘em coming & the pile dwindles. Classic feelings throughout and to the core. The musicianship is right on time and a lyrical phenom. Clever, funny, original and a tip of the hat to the classic styles of our youth.

“Taking up the mantle of honky tonk evangelist, his debut album is laced with tales of incarceration, drinking, religion and (anti) right-wing politics. There’s humour in the songs, lots of it in fact, but there’s also lots of ripping pedal steel, fiddles and guitars behind TLWG’s stormy country vocals”

“In an age when country music seems to be polarized into radio pop and barrier-pushing alt-country, Gill’s album has more of a traditionalist backbone. Strangely, it’s sort of refreshing for a new album to sound like it materialized from the ‘50s”
