Brent Tyler
This is the best description of Brent Tyler’s music and live performance. An aggressive acoustic style combined with a soulful voice and lungs befit of his literal seven-foot stature. Brent Tyler balances the soft subtlety of honest and introspective folk music with catchy and powerful pop/rock hooks and melodies born of his childhood influences and contemporary crushes.
The Dead South
The Dead South is a four-piece acoustic ensemble based in Regina, Saskatchewan. With Nate Hilts’ gritty vocals and aggressive guitar strumming, Scott Pringle’s soaring harmonies and mandolin chops, Colton Crawford’s blazing banjo licks and steady kick drum, and Danny Kenyon’s prominent cello melodies, The Dead South blends elements of folk, bluegrass, classical, and rock which results in a unique, modern, and authentic blend of boot-stompin’ acoustic music.
