Tyler Childers Plots Headlining Fall 2018 Tour

Kentucky-born performer Tyler Childers has extended his wide-ranging 2018 summer tour into fall, with plans to headline some of the biggest venues of his still-accelerating career.

Nominated for Emerging Artist of the Year at the upcoming Americana Music Association Honors and Awards, the unflinching singer-songwriter’s new dates begin October 10th and include stops at Brooklyn’s Brooklyn Bowl; Washington, D.C.’s 9:30 Club; and Los Angeles’ famed Troubadour, with tickets going on-sale this Friday, June 8th. They join a June to September schedule, which is already taking Childers across the U.S. and into Canada, plus a short run in Europe and the U.K.

Fusing gritty lyrical realism with the folk, bluegrass and rock influences of his Appalachian upbringing, Childers’ album Purgatory (produced by Sturgill Simpson) landed on a number of best-of lists – including Rolling Stone‘s 40 Best Country and Americana Albums of 2017. He’s since made his debut on the Grand Ole Opry, and will open a show for John Prine at Cincinnati’s Taft Theater this Saturday.
