Update #1: You people are amazing.
I want to throw a party and release a flashy, artistic limited run of two EPs that I’m currently recording. I’m not panhandling. If you don’t give, it doesn’t make a difference as far as the release of the final project. If you do give, you get a special, super limited pressing of an album that’s really good (and only for Atlantans- unless you're an extra special out of town friend), and you get all the booze you care to drink at a party at my house, party favors, food, music, etc. I feel like this is a way to go the extra mile in a way that’s fair and fun for everyone.
Approx cost of throwing the party=$450
Approx cost of art/poster/CD duplication=$600 (assuming 50 people donate) (double if 100)
I feel like $20 is well worth that.
These are the songs being recorded:
1.Unbearable Lightness (Or Else I’ll Float Away)
2.Nashville (Paperbacks/Box of Wine)
3.Parry Sound (Onward Goldmund!)
4.She Dreams in Colour (Eve’s Love Song)
5.Love Story
1.It’s Fun To Do Bad Things
2.I Can Get In Trouble On My Own
3.One Legged Woman
4.Pretty Lady and the Pearly Gates
5.Whiskey is a Medicine (Promised Land)
titles might change, but the songs won’t.
Love all around.

P.S. I'm embarrassed by how generous you guys are. I promise to make good for all you out of towners.

Project By
Connected as Tyler Lyle (2133 friends)
Georgia musician living in Los Angeles. I'm the son of a songwriter (and mobile home salesman) and grew up in small town Georgia. Swore I'd never be a musician. I graduated from college with a degree in Philosophy and moved to Paris. When I wound up back in Atlanta, I recorded an album that was (unbeknownst to me), my decision to be a starving artist. I've worked with Dixie Chicks and 70's songwriter icons. I've played in church rec buildings and billionaires vineyards. I think the interesting stuff has just started. I don't think you're supposed to write your own bio, but it felt weird writing in third person and, well, anyway, I'm just some dude. Thanks.
