Hailing from the rolling hills of Kansas, Tyler Gregory can regularly be found busking on city streets with steam-powered melodies bouncing off the street-side architecture. Gregory's mix of blues and roots music howls with a sense of passion and freedom. Playing an average of 230 shows a year, this songcrafter takes the cues and lifestyle from WWII-era blues bellowers.Gregory goes full force on his guitar/stomp-box live performance arrangements.

His latest release, ''Before the Black Powder Strikes'' explores the journey of life through songs of love, hardships, drinking, and travels. These soulful, ghostly, and meaningful songs, demonstrate the simple ways of life are at our fingertips. This album is a stripped down reflection on moments from his current life; showing where he has traveled not only on foot but in his own mind, and where this journey will take him.
