Warner Music Nashville’s Tyler Braden bared his soul, and personal burdens, on new anthemic track “Above The Water”, released last October. He is now visiting the UK and Ireland on a 10 date tour supporting Brothers Osborne. This is a second visit to us following an appearance at C2C in 2023. Braden wrote “Above The Water” wiith Daniel Agee, Ian Harrison, and Sarah Turner. About the new song, Braden says:  

“On the surface, ‘Above The Water’ feels like a religious song, and it can be if that’s what the listener needs it to be. Deep down though, it’s a song about knowing that it’s ok to struggle. It’s about being aware and recognizing those struggles, and knowing that overcoming them takes time, and that’s ok, too. We are human and aren’t supposed to be perfect.”

Tyler Braden has the gritty powerhouse vocal, the expressive pen and the ability to deliver a lyric with complete conviction worthy of a headliner. Braden began crafting his sound as a teenager in Slapout, AL, where he demonstrated his mettle playing four-hour cover sets. He continued to perform between shifts as a firefighter in both Montgomery and Nashville; a set at the homegrown Whiskey Jam concert series in January 2017 paved his path to today.

His Warner Music Nashville EP, Neon Grave, combines deep-rooted country tradition with the rollicking, high-energy instincts of a born rock ‘n’ roller. Braden has graced the stage with top acts like Luke Bryan, Brooks & Dunn, Brantley Gilbert, Chris Stapleton, Dierks Bentley, and Mitchell Tenpenny. His studio recordings capture the same high-energy vibe as his live shows, resonating with fans across the globe.
