I just watched the recently posted video on the Fender site and it is amazing.
Tyler Bryant has to be the hottest up and coming guitar player. He is only 18 yrs old and is simply sick! The videos are posted under news and then videos.
Wow. Fender must really believe in him to have flown he and his band in from Nashville to play Fender's NAMM stage on Friday!
Check it out. Sick playing man. He is also featured in a film called
Rock Prophecies which also features Jeff Beck, Slash, Santana and many others.
Good company for sure!!!!

I was at this Fender performance on Friday and Tyler Bryant blew the
place up! He is far and away the most talented young guitar player I have
ever seen (and I have seen them all). What stage presence. All the Fender brass were there as well as artists and many record executives. The video is on the Fender site. You go to news then video and then NAMM Showcases.
This kid is the future of guitar. Finally someone young (18) for the younger generation to look up to. The new guitar hero!

When I saw Joe Bonamassa last year, Tyler was the opener. Did some nice work.

And he was at last years NAMM also.

I so wish I was able to be there to see it live. The video is pretty amazing
though. I have been looking up everything I can find on him and he is really quite amazing. It is no wonder Fender is supporting him the way they are. He has played with Vince Gill, Joe Bonamassa and many others.
There is a picture on one of his sites of he and Robert Plant!
I want to hear more. My son found a song of his on Guitar Hero called
"Who I Am" which is one of the hardest to play. Gee, that is hard to believe!!

I saw that he played with Joe at the King of the Blues but where did he open for Joe? TN? Joe wouldnt just take anybody. I am a big Joe fan.
Great read in guitar world this month with Joe.
Tyler is a monster!

Welcome to the forums BG, thanks for the heads up. I haven't heard the kid play, off to see the vids now.

thanks snowy. you really do need to check them out. i am so inspired by what i saw in Tyler that i literally just joined the forum to tell people about it since i cant share much of this stuff with my friends who arent players. all the girls think the band is hot but i need to talk about the skills somewhere!
enjoy man and let me know what you think.

He opened for Joe here in Nashville, his comments made it sound as if he was doing it in several other places as well.
