Tyler Braden Visits Kicks 99
Every now and then we have up and coming artists stop by Kicks 99 on a radio tour. And our guest today was Tyler Braden.
Who Is Tyler Braden?
Tyler Braden is a singer-songwriter from Alabama, who started out playing 4-hour cover sets as a teenager around the town of Slapout. Early on, Tyler worked as a firefight in Montgomery, Alabama, and then in Nashville. Between shifts, he kept performing.
In January of 2017, Tyler played a set at the Whiskey Jam concert series. This would start the momentum for his career in music. His first EP called Neon Grave was with Warner Music Nashville, and from that EP, he had a single, “Try Losing One,” that gained some traction.
In early 2024, Braden posted videos on Instagram and TikTok performing his song “Devil You Know.” And the videos quickly caught on, and garnered over 10 million views in just two weeks.
Tyler Braden’s career is truly taking off, and he’s toured with Luke Bryan, Brooks & Dunn, Brantley Gilbert, Chris Stapleton, Dierks Bentley, and Mitchell Tenpenny. And from March through early May 2024, Tyler had his own headlining tour with 17 stops across the U.S.
