Tyler Childers - Rock Salt & Nails 

Hang in there Matt… and keep listening. I’m not a combat veteran with PTSD so I can only imagine how that must be. I have had a lifetime of lost loved ones, starting at a very young age. I have found that, at times, the best place for me to be and at times, the only place I find comfort, is deep in some songs. Tyler has been a go to for me since I stumbled upon him a few months ago. Thank you for your service. God bless you. Take care!

Thank you for everything you have given/sacrificed for this nation. You will always be in our hearts and minds.

Hooah

Keep your head up brother! Much love and respect for your service and sacrifice

Oorah!! Prayers Brother. We know. I'm an old man now but but still can't rid of it. Thank you for your service and welcome home.

Sorry 😢for your loss

I'm so sorry for your loss sweetheart x

I am sorry. My cousin lost his son to the same poison.

My baby brother will forever be 34, due to fentanyl. He loved Tyler. We listened together, as often as we could❤️ I will forever miss him. I'm so very sorry for your loss 🙏

I am truly sorry , my thoughts are with you .This is an endless hell and agony no parent should endure , Jan 21 4 years ago I lost my youngest son 1 week after his 26th birthday . My heart shattered I am forever broken .

tylerao man i bet

Currently me, brother.

Yep hitting the jack looking for good music, damn sure found it.

@@codyb5149 same brother

Right there with you homie

Agreed Sir. Just found him recently within the last month I would hear bits and pieces of his songs and wonder who the heck is this and finally I now know. Listen to him every day. The man plays with so much emotion..

Me too, I just found him today

At least we have him now! haha! I found him about 6 months ago and I have been hooked and listening to him all the time too!

All day-every day. You just cant get enough.!!

Same here. Discovered him the past like week and I can’t stop listening to him. He’s so insanely talented

“…they were written in shame”

Ole Utah Phillips was a wordsmith among many other skills.

@@sartainjatruth✨

Everytime

"I know that your conscience still echos my name...."....that one got me

He didn’t write this song it’s a cover

Rebecca Hagemann yess

@@weekendwarrior4271 Yes, it was written by Bruce "Utah" Philips, a master song writer and story teller who left the planet 12 years ago. Check out Rosalie Sorrells' version of this song.

Alex how did I find you on here

Colter wall. Hope you know him if not look him up.

I also found this cause of Sturgill

Country? This is an American Heart and Soul Sound.

@@inyerwindow3594 might be an old song, search it up, of all artists that tried to pour their heart into it....no one makes it sound as full of soul and heart as Tyler!! Best version!

You got that shit right!!!

No description necessary brother

Couldn't say it better myself

His rendition This song was written before you or he was born

give credit where credit is due. Its steve youngs music, its Tyler's voice and guitar but Tyler does an amazing cover

Jay Brown few ppl have. Kurt Kobain. J Frank Wilson are a couple

Listen to Hank Williams then slap yourself. This is good stuff though.

Damien West Cobain? get outta hear

he didn't convey a lot of the emotion but it was definitely there in my opinion

Jay Brown absolutely. I have to agree. He comes from the hart and is honest. That’s a true artist being able to expose themselves with such raw emotion.

That's funny. My guys at work let me control the music too but they expect rock and roll

I swear to god I put Tyler on shuffle the other day and 4 of the 6 guys on our framing crew came up and asked me who it was. Working men understand....

@@damonficken3457 farmers understand lol. I'd get "what the fuck are we listening too?" If I put tyler on shuffle. I could probably pass with one song

Jody Tiller Big fan of Jinks just found this guy and love it. Got any other similar artists to recommend?

Depends on what you are looking for lol. If you lean more towards Jinks, I would suggest Chris Knight, Scott Copeland, Brandon Jenkins, Turnpike Troubadours, Stoney Larue, Jason Boland and several others. If you want something like the guy in this video, I would go with the guys like The Dead South and St. Paul and the Broken Bones to get that old blues/bluegrass sound. St. Paul and the Broken Bones is very Otis Redding/Ray Charles as far as instrumentals, even if that isn't your thing you would be missing out if you didn't check out their stuff. The vocalist is a once in a lifetime guy. If you want something similar to Tyler Childers vocally, go with William Clark Green, Whskey Myers or Wade Bowen. Lastly the only artist I can think of that this guy really compares to all around, would be Hayes Carll. The list is a kind of long and you may already listen to several of these guys. There are just too many great artist coming out of this scene lol. Also check out Sturgill Simpson if you get a chance, if Waylon, Merle and Otis Redding ever had a child together, his name would be Sturgill Simpson.

Colter Wall and to an extent Shawn James could fall into the list above

Jody Tiller Awesome I listen to a couple of them already but most are new names so I'm excited to check them out. Thanks for the list!

check out Bryan James to

The message was from Utah Philips the writer of the song.

Working class

Tyler speaks a different language from most

That’s what everyone should want for an artist they truly love and adore. For the rest of the world to get to experience their beauty like us ❤️ gatekeeping is for nerds anyways

These lyrics and this song are missing an entire verse....but it is still a great rendition

thank you so much

Yup buddy, yup

I do the same, maybe someday my children will look back on it and smile

I play the red barn on repreat with my daughter and dance with her, she’s only 2 but I hope she remembers this

Guess I'm lucky. I started listening to him because my 15 year old son told me about him, and I'm glad he did.

*smiles* she will :) i got precous little from my monster of a father but lol i can't help myself... a little John Prine and i have to at least give the ol' man that. He gave me music.

Jesus Christ is our savior, he died on the Cross for our sins. Putting your faith in Him is the only way to get to Heaven when you die🙏✝️

No sir,that is 1 of the few pains we learn to live with,so it doesn't kill us...

Main stream sucks. Welcome to the underground

Nashville aint real country no more

It's a great cover for sure

Lovely place, tho mate

My wife has been having a affair and left me for that man. Listening to Tyler helps the enormous pain I am going through right now..... His music is a gift from God

I got married in Kenmare.

@@austonsexton3161 Hang in there

@@austonsexton3161 I can relate. My wife left me too and the songs are therapeutic.

Fester praise kek

Try nose to the grindstone or white house road. Unbelievably good. And kek doesn't make the destruction of the globalist NWO a real possibility now. Yah weh does. The one true GOD. Thanking an Egyptian god for the work of the true GOD that freed the Jews from the egyptians is not gonna bode well for you spiritually in the long run. The whole kek thing is deception. Blinders. Is it fight fire with fire? No its good vs evil

REEEEEEEE!

@jarrett devillier i was going to say that,lol

Best comment ever. God bless you sir

LOLOLOLOL!

Love Red Dirt Texas music.. but this guy has my shit topped out in the garage

Yip bought a massive amp and now the neighbours love me. Imagine that.

I just saw him 3 weeks ago. He's still awesome.

He never wrote this song

i love this line

Great performance.. but this song was written over 50 years ago in 1969 by an artist named Steve Young.. which would make them more his words really

@@danielharrington5690 Wrong the song was written by Utah Phillips coming home from the Korean war on a ship when he got a dear John letter. Utah never recorded it because he said it was too bitter.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord- Romans 6:23🙏

matthew sawyer buddy thats an east kentucky fasion statment if you aint wearin work boots you aint shit 😂

Maybe because he hasn’t made it big yet can’t afford anything else

@@leroyhall624 bet if he does make it big, he'll still wear the same boots! Saw Neil Young years ago...had the same old kind of ragged boots! 👍😎🎸🎶

A man just wears what's comfortable.

@@deanpitman3325 amen! Just went to the store last night in my pj's! I was comfortable...all that mattered!👍😎🎸🎶

I can just visualize that, with his songs!

Oh hell yeah !

Mandy Smith can i come with you ?

Cole Chaney is awesome too check him out👌🏼

Actually a U. Utah Phillips song.

Cool, I didn't know

Sorry about your buddy

Sorry for your loss

Sorry for your loss may he Rest In Peace ❤️🙏🏼🌻

Tyler's simply amazing. Bottles And Bibles is his first materpiece he released at age 18 (Amazon has the full 13 song version). And search Soundcloud for his hits that will probably never be on an album but should be.

Love him

His song in response to BLM was courage. Just turned it over so whites could imagine the situation and imagine how they would respond.

Thanks for this. Just found a few tracks on Spotify. Love that old, old tyme music. TC embodies it.

He didnt write this

He's a Appalachian poet

@@coonhunter1192 He did not write it.

You can thank Steve Young for writting the lyrics over 50 years ago. This is a cover. A hell of a cover but a cover nonetheless.

@@danielharrington5690 Nope. U. Utah Phillips wrote it.

He Is!

5.6 million first time I watch it, it had 36k 😳

What, the singing, because he did not write the song?

Agreed but this is a cover not an original.
