ALBUM RELEASE TOUR KICKS OFF FEBRUARY 20 IN WASHINGTON DC

Tyler Ramsey is thrilled to release his sixth studio album New Lost Ages via Soundly Music.

“This is an album of shadows and light, “ says Tyler. “It is about the calm that follows the storm and it’s about the dark clouds when they roll back in again.”

New Lost Ages was recorded at the legendary Avast! Recording Co. in Seattle, Washington, by storied producer Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Father John Misty, The Shins, Built to Spill). The 10-song LP is an ongoing sonic quest — meticulously wandering across the musical landscape, this undulating tone of indie, rock and folk stylings.

Ramsey’s single “These Ghosts” has been active at radio for just a few weeks and has found its way into many high-profile stations across the country including SiriusXM The Spectrum, WFUV in New York, WRLT in Nashville, WYEP in Pittsburgh and Radio Milwaukee. In addition to “These Ghosts,” New Lost Ages was heralded by singles “Flare (for Neal Casal),” and the title track “New Lost Ages.”

“These Ghosts” is the lead single off the record and is a song Ramsey says, “is for anyone who has left a bad situation behind them only to look down and realize they are still carrying it with them somehow. Letting go – even letting go of something that’s no good – can take time. The pain in your head is just the smoke from a fire that burned out a long time ago.”

“‘Flare (for Neal Casal)’ was written while I was hiding out in some cheap beach condo in Gulf Shores Alabama and trying to write songs when I heard the news about Neal Casal’s passing,” remembers Ramsey. “I was way up on a high floor of one of those giant beachfront condos and the sun had just set and I thought I saw a flare go off way out in the dark ocean. After I called to report what I thought I’d seen to the local cops I sat and watched the dark horizon for a long time. Sometimes people need help and they never ask for it- sometimes people send signals out but those of us that might see them don’t know what to do to help. I barely knew Neal but somehow I think of him often and miss what was only a potential future. Look out for each other out there.”

“New Lost Ages” is a song that is “about letting go of innocence and facing the reality of a society that is in decline,” explains Ramsey. “One that is refusing to change course or even pause itself. It’s searching for hope in all of this. It’s wanting my children to be able to experience this world with wonder and joy and not have to carry the weight of our mistakes.”

In support of his new album, Ramsey will embark on a nationwide tour that kicks off on February 20 in Washington DC. Ahead of the tour, he will be hosting a limited number of intimate in store performances and signings including the iconic Grimey’s in Nashville on release day.
