There’s one, very familiar place that Ty Myers likes to utilize when it comes to his songwriting. The “Thought It Was Love” singer recently joined the Whiskey Riff Raff podcast to talk to us about his career blowing up while he’s still a teenager, being the boss of adults at the age of 18, and being called an old soul ever since he started writing full songs when he was seven years old. Myers also touched on the main demographic of his fanbase being young girls, how every night on tour is a party (and why he sometimes separates himself from it), John Mayer being his number one influence, and the fun fact about where most of his songwriting takes place. What were you doing when you were 18 years old? Probably wrapping up high school, getting ready to go off to college, or preparing to enter the workforce. Regardless of what you might have been up to, chances are that you still lived with your parents at that age. The same is true for Ty Myers, who is currently on a meteoric rise in the world of country music. He’s already got hit songs like “Thought It Was Love” and “Ends of the Earth,” and the singer-songwriter just released his sophomore album, Heavy on the Soul, at the end of March. Needless to say, Ty Myers has accomplished a lot in his young career already… all before he’s even moved out of his parent’s house. Myers is currently looking into buying his own house, which is pretty impressive for an 18-year-old. And when the time does come to move out, it’ll be a little bittersweet, because he told us one of the more natural places for him to write songs is his childhood bedroom: “It’s crazy. I’ve probably written 90% of every song I’ve ever written in the room I grew up in. Obviously, more recently, I’ve been out places.” I’m sure most of us can relate to our imaginations running wild in our childhood bedrooms. The only difference between us and Ty Myers is that he’s turned his creativity into millions of streams and millions of fans. Oh, and one of those places where’s Myers has been “out” recently is none other than Paris, France. He said that writing came easy to him while he was visiting “The City of Light” just because of the energy that surrounds the iconic destination: “Last time I went to Paris, I just went on a writing (spree) because you just go to places like that and it just gets your creativity going. It’s like the excitement of being in this place you’ve dreamed of being just brings out this artistic side.” Myers mentioned that similar feelings hit him when he travels to Los Angeles and New York. But at the end of the day, home is the best place for him to write. Like I mentioned, he’s been writing songs since he was seven years old. Now, a decade into songwriting, he’s close to mastering the art with basically his entire adult life ahead of him. One of those big, monumental adult moves will be getting his own house soon… and no, he’s not worried about losing that writing spark when he moves out: “I think it’s going to be good. Because I’m very picky. That’s why it’s taken so long because I really need the right environment and I’m really picky with it. But I think it’ll be good.” @whiskeyriff Listen to the Whiskey Riff Raff podcast @@Ty Myers##whiskeyriff##whiskeyriffraff ♬ Stay – Ty Myers To listen to the full interview with Ty Myers, make sure to check it out on YouTube or download the podcast on Apple Podcasts by searching “Whiskey Riff Raff” or by clicking here.
