Tyler Dodson / Allyn Raney

Tyler Dodson is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, born in the foothills of the Sauratown mountains in Stokes County, North Carolina, whose musical journey weaves a tapestry of sounds and stories as eclectic as the South itself. From crafting soul-stirring melodies or exploring and sharing the depths of his own psyche, he remains steadfast in his commitment to the art of story. His eclectic musical tastes, ranging from the rebellious anthems of The Strokes to the raw poetry of master songwriters like John Prine, Guy Clark and Tom Petty, all the way to soul pioneers such as Wilson Pickett and Otis Redding, helped to shape his distinctive blend of Americana; some even referring to Dodson as a “country Bill Withers”. https://thisistylerdodson.com/
