Nashville recording artist Tyler Edwards making his Bird Room debut.
"Tyler Edwards conveys a stealth-like view in his moody melodies, breaching sensitive singer/songwriter fare with a reliable rock stance that recalls Jason Isbell, Ryan Adams and the Avetts in its unassuming honesty."
- Lee Zimmerman, Paste Magazine
Tyler Edwards is an American singer-songwriter and musician with quite a nostalgic feel to his music, reminding me a little of Brian Fallon and Bruce Springsteen’s music.

TYLER EDWARDS
Beginning his career in 2008, Tyler wrote and performed with the South Carolina rock band, I Anthem. After releasing two EPs and an LP, the band had multiple songs break the Top 10 on Billboard's Rock Charts and music featured on MTV and NASCAR. In 2015, Edwards launched his solo career with a 6-song EP, “Too Young for Love” and relocated to Seattle, Washington. While there, Tyler cultivated a strong grass-roots by consistently touring and selling out some of Seattle's most notable venues (The Tractor Tavern, Barboza, The Royal Room) and sharing the stage with national touring artist such as Ian Noe, Will Hoge, Nicki Bluhm, and The Steel Wheels.
"A Falling Sky," the sophomore album released on September 30, 2022. With a 6 year gap between full length releases, this new record shows that the time spent was invested in crafting intensive songwriting and delicate delivery. Recorded over a 4 year span, Tyler worked with longtime friend and producer Jim Stephens to make sure each song held up through a pandemic, distance, and remote recording. The lyrics and music take the listener on a journey of personal story telling and poetic discovery. This collaborative effort also enlisted mixing by Neil Hampton for majority of the album, while featuring additional mixing by Ryan Freeland (Ray LaMontagne, Bonnie Raitt, The Barr Brothers), and mastering work by Kim Rosen (Aimee Mann, Rhiannon Giddens, The Milk Carton Kids, The Avett Bros). Edwards followed the album with two independently produced and recorded singles in 2023, which helped further the reach of his music and amass over a million streams on Spotify alone.
