An enormous debut for Tyler Childers .
The Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter scored his highest debut so far on the all-genre Billboard 200 albums chart this week, as his new album Snipe Hunter debuted at #7 this week, incomes 48,000 equal models. It’s his third prime 10 in whole, however it’s actually cool to see him popping out of the gate with such a scorching begin with this mission:
After all, the report was produced by Rick Rubin, a legendary producer who has labored with everybody from Beastie Boys and Run DMC to Pink Sizzling Chili Peppers and Metallica, and he has a status for pushing artists effectively exterior of their consolation zones and creating actual magic. I used to be shocked, however extraordinarily excited, to see him and Tyler have been formally working collectively, and as was anticipated, they delivered one thing very distinctive and creatively totally different than something Tyler has finished earlier than.
A few of the response to it has been blended at greatest, however I really feel prefer it’s not surprising that having Rubin produce Snipe Hunter would imply Tyler’s going to do one thing exterior of his norm… that’s sort of the purpose of getting somebody like him onboard. That’s what he does greatest.
Tyler himself, in addition to Sylvan Esso’s Nick Sanborn, even have producing credit on Snipe Hunter, and simply the runaway hit to date has been “Bitin’ Record,” which has over 65,000 TikTok movies to date with the track, over half one million streams in simply sooner or later (August 1st) and continues to climb all-genre charts at iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify and extra. It’s additionally created some drama between Zach Bryan and Brianna Chickenfry, however I digress…
Snipe Hunter can be at present #1 on Billboard’s Vinyl Albums, Americana/Folks Albums and Indie Retailer Albums charts in addition to #2 on the Billboard High Nation Albums chart and #20 on the all-genre High Streaming Albums chart.
Saying it’s off to a powerful begin sort of appears like an understatement, and whereas there could also be some on-line critics who’re extraordinarily vocal, it’s clear that most individuals are loving the album, and I believe Tyler’s reaching a bigger viewers than ever earlier than which is basically cool to see. He’s breaking into the mainstream in a tangible method, and I’m certain some “followers” will complain about that too…
I’ve a sense there are even increased debuts in his future, however that is very well-deserved and a very long time coming.
