Good & Bad News....

(Deep breath in....and...) I've got some good news and bad news for you guys. First, the good news. Matt Serletic has joined the team and will be producing the last songs needed for the record. We start today and are planning on working for the next 3 weeks or so on 6 new tunes. This will be it! No more recording to come after this. There is a light at the end of this long tunnel. Unfortunately, like some good things that come, they do so at a price. The price of this final hurrah will be having to cancel the tour with Better Than Ezra that I had planned starting on the 9th. Look, this is something I hate to do and I know lots of you were looking forward to the shows, but this is something I really need to do. It's importance is implicit in having to cancel a tour my friends in the band went out of their way to help me out and bring me aboard. Believe me, all I want to do is get out there and play for you. Every freaking state, every country. My tour plans the last few years have been so scatter brained because there has always been this record to contend with. I will finish this music this summer and then all I'll have to focus on will be playing it back to you live and as often as your area will have me. I'm so so sorry to everyone who was looking forward to seeing the shows and sorry to everyone on the Better Than Ezra team and my team who did all the work to promote and make this happen. I hope everyone will understand and know that I'll be back out there soon enough. And when the next time comes to leave on tour….I’ll be
out there for a long while. I'll be yours again!

Thanks for understanding

Tyler

Matt Serletic is awesome

No worries on the tour or the record taking longer, Matt Serletic coming on board is gonna bring out the awesome in you. For those who don't know the name, he's produced and co-written songs with Matchbox Twenty and Rob Thomas for years now. The guy rocks. I'm very excited to see him on board with you guys, Ty!

So sorry that you'll not make it back to Tennessee in a couple of weeks! Keep working on that record, though... I suspect I'll have to get another autographed copy for the Oak Ridge Boys like last time... :)

CD! Is good!

Kinda surprised at some of the comments- we've all been waiting for your CD so this is great news, I think it's great you're taking that final jump to get it finished! I know we all will love it. Hope you make it out again soon, very excited for the CD.

sooo... what does this mean?

Submitted by snowluver on Mon, 06/29/2009 - 3:35pm.

since tyler is canceling the tour with Better than Erza in order to get recording help from this other guy, does this mean the album is almost done? Not in the editing phase, but almost done with recording? I can't wait for your new album(!), but a little up-to-dates on how its going would be very nice.

I've been a fan of yours for a long time now. I haven't seen or talked to you in a while though. What happened to the old Tyler? The guy who stopped by the boards to say hi, asked opinions on something, played music whenever he could....and toured whenever possible. The Tyler the "trackers" loved! Obviously you made this decision to cancel the shows because it's what is best for you, which I respect completely. I just think it's ao interesting that it's taken almost 5 years to get a new album out. I just hope your doing this your way without the label bs.. You are very talented which is evident in your acoustic songs! Good luck with everything and maybe I'll run into you down the road.

come to denver!

Everyone is still gonna love you and your music.
Don't lose any more sleep over it or anything like that.
Just keep doing your thing Tyler.

wow..

That's sad that you have to cancel the shows. :( I was looking forward to the Athens one or the Nashville one. But, if canceling them so you can get the record out here, then I'm all for it! I'm ready for this record. I have been waiting for it since you told us you was making one. :) I'm happy its finally getting finished. but, it's still a bummer you had to cancel. :/
I still love you though. :) lol.

i am so disappointed. i've been looking forward to his show in nasvhille for weeks!! wow. i'm officially sad.

Ooh... heartbreak

Submitted by karenvt on Mon, 06/29/2009 - 12:02pm.

I'm confused. Does that mean that the dates not on the Better Than Ezra tour are cancelled as well? Either way, the good news makes the bad news worth it. Thank you so much for all your hard work, Tyler. Best wishes on the record!
