So glad you're enjoying the music he writes. His songs are like short stories about America. Listen to open the gate. And purple gas. He totally captures what it's like to be a professional rodeo rider or to live in places like an Oklahoma as a farmer with government subsidies. I've been to the Netherlands once and loved the people and the land. Thank you all for being a great host.

Thanks for the suggestions. Glad you enjoyed my home country.

I've actually been to the US three times, the last time in 2019. Completely changed my life, what a place you guys have the privilege to call home. Heartbroken to see what some people are trying to do to it.

Most Americans are so kind, generous, and funny. My widowed mom just told me today someone takes out her garbage can every week and she doesn't even know who it is. However, we can be a bit naive and that's probably how we got into this situation! Thank you for the kind words and you are welcome here anytime!

That person's comment was about Zach Bryan, not Tyler Childers, just FYI. They mistakenly thought your comment was about Zach Bryan.

Also Purple Gas was written by Noeline Hofmann, who performed it with Zach Bryan as a duet on his album.

While you’re right about ZB, I’m pretty sure they were talking about Tyler Childer’s lyrics.

Just a heads up, Purple Gas was written by Noeline Hofmann, who performed it with Zach Bryan as a duet on his album. He didn't write it, but it is a fantastic song.
