Tyler Childers Produces Willi Carlisle's Cosmic Folk Album | Country Music News

Tyler Childers, the breakout country-folk star who rose with Sturgill Simpson’s help, is stepping into the producer’s chair for the first time — on Willi Carlisle’s wildly ambitious new double album, The Universal Bubba, dropping November 6. Recorded in a DIY New Orleans studio with Childers’ band, the 17-track project blends funk, Cajun, Americana, and experimental sounds, with Carlisle calling it “getting drunk at a Civil War reenactment or doing molly at a square dance.” The first single, “Mason Jar At The Center Of The World,” was written during Carlisle’s tour with Childers in Australia and is already out. This marks a major creative leap for Childers and a huge boost for Carlisle’s mission to revive “old weird America” through universal folk music.
