About Tyler Gitchel
Bio
At just 16, Tyler made his mark on the country music scene, winning both the 2023 Male Vocalist of the Year and Entertainer of the Year titles at the North American Country Music Associations (NACMA) competition in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. His outstanding talent also earned him opportunities to open for well-known artists like Ray Scott, Dale Watson, and Ben Chapman.
Tyler's musical journey has been strongly shaped by his father, who was instrumental in his early growth. Together, they crossed paths with Glen Cain, a three-tour Vietnam veteran and former Army Green Beret who later worked security for country legend Conway Twitty. Conway, recognizing Glen's musical gifts, brought him on to open for country icons like Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard. Glen, in turn, invited Tyler, his father, and Uncle Clint to join his band, offering Tyler invaluable guidance in the world of entertainment.
Now, at 17, Tyler is stepping into the spotlight with his debut EP, set to be released in September 2024, marking the beginning of his promising music career
