Tyler Childers at the Walmart AMP

Tyler Childers will take the Walmart AMP stage when his Send in the Hounds Tour comes to Northwest Arkansas on Saturday, April 22, as part of the Cox Concert Series. Support includes Charley Crockett and Wayne Graham. Gates open at 5 pm. Music starts at 6:30 pm. Childers is a singer and songwriter known for storytelling through his experimental country and folk music. He has recorded and released five albums, one of which is RIAA Platinum®. He also has three Platinum singles, one Gold® single and one Grammy® nomination. In 2018, he was named emerging artist of the year by the Americana Music Association. Childers' newest album, Can I Take My Hounds to Heaven?, is a journey across different instrumental concepts that gel to form a signature sound for him and his touring band, The Food Stamps. Listeners will hear hallelujah, jubilee and joyful noise versions of the same eight songs, including new takes on fan-favorite song “Purgatory” from his 2017 album. It’s a collection of songs that stand firmly on their own but are elevated when listened to together as an album.
