Ty Myers Wants You to Listen to Willie
At just 19 years old, Ty Myers has already become one of country music’s biggest breakout stars. He first reached a wider audience with his viral song “Tie That Binds” in 2023. His debut album, The Select, followed in January 2025. This year, he’s released two more albums: Heavy on the Soul featuring 17 songs, and Two Braids & the Truth , a ten-song tribute to Willie Nelson, whose music has been part of Ty’s life since childhood. Ty came by the Southern Living offices in Birmingham, Alabama, a few hours before he was set to headline a show in Tuscaloosa at Mercedes-Benz Amphitheater. After a quick tour of the test kitchens, he talked to Sid about his connection to Willie, the song he considers perfect, what Texas means to him, and one of the most fun nights he’s ever had on stage.
