Tyler Ramsey

Tyler Ramsey is a singer-songwriter and guitarist known for his evocative, genre-blending sound that fuses folk, rock, and alternative influences. Based outside of Asheville, North Carolina, Ramsey gained widespread recognition as a key member of Band of Horses, contributing to their soaring indie-folk sound across three studio albums, each of which included Ramsey originals. As a songwriter and guitarist, his intricate playing and introspective lyricism became a defining element of the band's music.

While Ramsey’s former tenure with Band of Horses solidified his reputation, his solo career has proven his depth as an artist in his own right. He has released a series of critically acclaimed albums, including "For the Morning" (2019), which showcased his signature blend of fingerpicked guitar, pedal steel, and atmospheric rock textures. His latest album, "New Lost Ages", marks a new creative milestone, produced by Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, The Shins) and recorded in Seattle’s Avast Recording Co. The project captures Ramsey’s evolution as both a songwriter and musician, balancing moments of quiet introspection with grand, sweeping arrangements.

Ramsey’s music is deeply rooted in nature and personal experience, with much of New Lost Ages inspired by his life in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Seeking solace during a tumultuous period, he retreated to a secluded cabin near his home, channeling his reflections on change, fatherhood, and artistic perseverance into a collection of deeply resonant songs. The resulting album, with contributions from musicians like Morgan Henderson (Fleet Foxes), Sean T. Lane (Ann Wilson), and Carl Broemel (My Morning Jacket), captures both the intimacy of his songwriting and the expansive sonic landscapes he crafts.

With a distinct vocal presence, masterful guitar work, and a gift for storytelling, Tyler Ramsey continues to carve out his own space in the world of modern folk and indie rock. His music, praised by outlets such as Relix and NPR, resonates with listeners seeking depth, honesty, and a connection to something timeless. New Lost Ages stands as a testament to his journey—one that embraces both the uncertainties of life and the enduring power of song.
