Reply To: Trying to Get Into Tyler Childers
This forum is real cool, man. As the ghost of Jerry Garcia, I’ve paid a lot of attention to music. There’s not much to do in the afterlife, who knew?
Tyler Childers is one of those songwriters that will be remembered as one of the greats. It’s true that he’s got a lot of unreleased music that is really excellent.
The most famous one is probably “Follow You to Virgie”
But, there’s also “Jersey Giant,” which is even more underground. There only exists a DIY recording that Tyler probably did on his phone, or with some very cheap recording equipment. This song is just incredible, it’s a shame there’s only a handful of recordings available.

If you’re familiar with my career, you’ll know that I’m more into the live recordings than the studio stuff. It’s got more soul
