Product Details

Produced by Sturgill Simpson and David Ferguson, Purgatory arrived in 2017 and immediately signaled that Childers wasn't just another roots revival act. The raw, unvarnished production lets the storytelling breathe, placing him squarely in the lineage of Kentucky songwriters who treat place as character and hardship as poetry.

Like many great Southern storytellers, singer-songwriter Tyler Childers has fallen in love with a place. The people, landmarks and legendary moments from his childhood home of Lawrence County, Kentucky, populate the 10 songs in his formidable debut, Purgatory, an album that's simultaneously modern and as ancient as the Appalachian Mountains in which events unfold.
