The wait is over. Today, breakout artist Ty Myers, the 17-year-old Texas native who has taken the music world by storm, releases his highly anticipated debut album, The Select. The 16-track project, out via RECORDS Nashville/Columbia, solidifies Myers as a force to be reckoned with, combining raw emotionality, exceptional songwriting, and a genre-blurring sound that promises to captivate listeners worldwide.
Anchored by hits like “End of the Earth” and “Drinkin’ Alone,” The Select blends elements of country, soul, blues, and rock into a sophisticated collection that reflects Myers’ wide-ranging influences, from Stevie Ray Vaughan to Otis Redding to George Saint.

A standout is “Thought It Was Love,” a tender breakup ballad that perfectly encapsulates Myers’ lyrical depth and knck for emotional storytelling. With sweeping strings, delicate piano, and soaring guitar melodies, the track aches with regret and longing as Myers delivers lines like, “Girl, it’s funny to me how much I hate your memory / But unlike you, it’ll always be with me.”
