Tyler Childers Announces New Rick Rubin-Produced Album 'Snipe Hunter' July 25

Tyler Childers has announced his seventh studio album, Snipe Hunter, set for release on July 25 via Hickman Holler Records and RCA Records. The 13-track album, produced by Rick Rubin with additional production from Childers and Nick Sanborn, features a mix of new recordings and fan-favorite unreleased songs like "Nose On The Grindstone" and potentially "Oneida" and "Jersey Giant." "Nose On The Grindstone," a song addressing the opioid crisis in Appalachia and a live staple since 2017, was released in both studio and live acoustic versions, accompanied by a new performance video. The album continues Childers' signature artistry while pushing creative boundaries, and includes contributions from special guests The Magic Numbers and Omni of Halos. Childers plans to support the album with a North American tour starting in July, including a headlining spot at the Healing Appalachia festival, which raises awareness about opioid addiction recovery. Fans are intrigued by cryptic teasers hinting at deeper connections to Childers' unreleased catalog, fueling anticipation for the full tracklist.
