William Tyler will join singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Daniel Rossen (Grizzly Bear, Department of Eagles) on his first-ever solo tour.

Released in 2013, Impossible Truth will challenge your ideas of what an instrumental guitar record can and should be. The album was included on year-end lists from SPIN, Pitchfork, Vulture, NPR, The New Yorker, and more. Vulture wrote, “[Tyler] sounds less like a musician flaunting his chops than a truth-seeker—a man using his guitar as a divining rod to uncover some hidden truth about life, or nature, or, at least, about guitars,” while Pitchfork declared, “Impossible Truth comes about as close as anyone could hope to approximating the sound of living a life.”
