No matter how good your week might go, just step aside and give the “Best Week Ever” crown to Tyler Rich.
First, Tyler’s 5 song EP was released on Friday and has been selling well. Then, Tuesday night, the Yuba City native realized a life-long dream and made it debut at Nashville’s venerated Grand Ole Opry.
But that’s not all. ALSO making their Opry debut last night:
Bill-Freaking-Murray.
Murray was there to support long-time friend (and Americana singer/songwriter/legend John Prine), who was performing new music, and to sign a little backup for Prine and Chris Stapleton’s old band, The Steel Drivers.
Talk about some rare air; it was hard to tell what Tyler was more excited about–his debut, or meeting a comedy god.
It was both mine AND Bill Murray’s #opry debut tonight 🙌🏼 pic.twitter.com/fFdMBynoZ6
