MUSIC DISCOGRAPHY
New Single - Goat Canyon Trestle
The second single from the upcoming album, Flatpicker
The largest wooden trestle ever built still stands in the Mojave Desert of Eastern San Diego County. I wrote this uptempo Bluegrass song to tell the story of the trestle and the “Impossible Railroad” which was conceived by sugar & shipping magnate John D Spreckels in 1906 & completed in 1919. History songs are tricky, and I am very proud of this one. It will tickle the ears of any enthusiast of the classic railroad songs. I furnish some Doc Watson-style flatpicking & Michael Daves delivers on the hot tenor vocal part. The moral of the story is, if you take on the desert, it will always win.

New Single - Been Away Too Long
The first single from the upcoming album, Flatpicker
A bouncy, feelgood Bluegrass song that tells the story of a traveling musician who feels close connections to home & family but has to spend most of his time elsewhere. I include nostalgic imagery from my Southern California homeland, and even reference the “family songs”, which are numbers that my Dad used to sing. He was our campfire entertainer when I was young

TYLER GRANT - EARTH AND WOOD
Critical Praise for Earth And Wood:
“Earth And Wood” is a timely reminder that the traditional bluegrass roots of Colorado’s progressive music scene are still nourishing and well-fed. I’ve been a fan of Tyler Grant’s flatpicking for more than a decade now, and though the crew that accompanies him here are mostly new to me, I’m now a fan of their knowledgeable, creative musicianship too. But Tyler’s not only a player with a great blend of finesse and strength, he has a keen ear for a cool tune, and he’s a fine singer and songwriter, too—and that makes “Earth And Wood” a dandy new addition to anyone’s bluegrass library.” —Jon Weisberger, IBMA Songwriter of the Year (2012)
