The first time I covered Tyler Childers, he was playing the early afternoon slot at Hinterland in Iowa. Now when he tours, he’s headlining *two* nights at a a stadium in Nashville. Unreal.

As a kid who will never forget that time in 8th grade when he was handed a Memorex CD with 'Three Cheers' burned onto it (because he wanted to check out the band opening up the 'American Idiot' tour, of course), this is an absolutely wild press release to see.
