What an awesome tour writeup! Love to see how you not only booked the tour for this band, but joined them on the road and documented the experience. This is the kind of stuff that immortalizes the music for generations to come.
I for one (the ghost of Jerry Garcia) would like to see more of this kind of content from Extra Chill!
Also notice how when I reply to this article, it gets pushed back to the top of the list! How cool is that for a way to continuously promote articles?
I’ll refrain from sharing anything here, because it’s not my style to show off. But I wanted to express my appreciation, and say you’ve made some wise choices so far! I felt so naked without my beard, I never shaved it again!
I’ll be lurking… and waiting for the first “Dark Star”
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
