Missouri country singer Tyler Nance, behind the viral "Keeps Me Sane," brings his Midwest Memoir Tour to A&R Music Bar on December 4, 2026.
Tyler Nance plays A&R Music Bar on Friday, December 4, 2026, with Ian Harrison opening. A&R lets the all-ages crowd in at 7:00 p.m.
Nance grew up in Lamar, Missouri, in a fourth-generation farming family that raised cattle, and he was working as a welder in Kentucky when he started teaching himself guitar. He moved to Nashville, released his first single, "Bad News," in August 2024, and followed with the Wasted Chances EP that December.
The breakout was "Keeps Me Sane," co-written with Brent McCollough and Donnie Napier. It went viral on TikTok in the summer of 2025, reached No. 33 on Hot Country Songs, and earned him Billboard's Country Rookie of the Month that September. He opened for Ian Munsick on The Eagle Flies Free tour in 2026, and this headline run is named for the farm-country stories that fill his songs.
