NASHVILLE GUITARIST WILLIAM TYLER TO PERFORM AT INDI GO WITH LOCAL
MUSICIAN NICK RUDD

On Friday, April 6th from 8:30 to 11:00pm Nashville guitarist William
Tyler will perform at indi go Artist Co-Op with featured local
musician Nick Rudd. Local musician Nick Rudd, instrumental guitarist
of Ferrocene 3, and Water Between Continents, will open the
performance, playing from 8:30 to 9pm. William Tyler will perform from
9:30-10:30pm. This show is open to all ages at the admission cost is
$10.

William Tyler is a native of Nashville, Tennessee, a town where
guitarists are as common as television sets or pigeons. At an early
age, he began playing and recording with artists that resided at the
fringes of the country and folk vernacular, such as the Silver Jews,
Lambchop, and Cortney Tidwell. He also found himself doing session
work with artists as diverse as country legend Charlie Louvin and soul
singer Candi Staton. All the while, Tyler was at home working on
fragmentary guitar pieces and tape collages under the moniker the
Paper Hats, calling on the spirit of Sandy Bull and the early
Siltbreeze catalog. In 2008, his longtime friend and sometime
collaborator Volker Zander released a Paper Hats lp “Deseret Canyon”
on his Apparent Extent imprint, and the two toured in Europe.

Now Tyler has released his first album under his own name, “Behold the
Spirit” (Tompkins Square), a collection of acoustic and electric
guitar works intertwined with open form audio landscapes and
delicately arranged instrumentation. Equal parts Appalachian drone and
ambient noise, “Behold the Spirit” is a series of homages to ancient
melodies, dead languages, and ghosts.
