On Thursday, May 19, 2011, I was featured on the KINK.fm Local Music Spotlight with my song Great Man’s Funeral from my album Bittersweet Parade. Because I was playing the Wyoming tourism event in Pioneer Square the following day, KINK was gracious enough to invite me into the studio for a chat with Inessa and to play my humble song on the air.
In all, we talked about my roots in Wyoming and how I came to be invited to play such an event. We also chatted in depth about my song Great Man’s Funeral and the meaning behind it.
Thank you Inessa and KINK.fm for your hospitality and for giving a local boy the opportunity to be heard on the airwaves and to be featured as your Local Music Spotlight.

Turns out there’s a “wild west” piece to Tyler Stenson, I never knew about. Wyoming born, and totally Portland. But there’s an annual visit back to the wide open spaces. This w-end/ Wyoming comes to Portland.
TYLER STENSON
Tyler does go back home to family, like once a year, he told me. But through a chain of events, and a song, (Tyler wrote about that “last good piece of land”) it caught the attention of the office of Tourism. Now they are setting up in Pioneer Courthouse Square Friday through Sunday, May 20-22nd. Tyler will be doing the music side of things.
