After delving into Tyler McGinnis’ lifelong search for musical authenticity, we would dare affirm that his debut has been truly overdue. Lucky for us, and the listener, today’s the day. ‘Geronimo’ sees the Tacoma-based troubadour emerging with a slice of uplifting and heartwarming country goodness, an Americana-driven exploration into lyrical introspection and radical honesty. Overall, the record comes across as a bold personal anthem, a way to celebrate a leap of faith that ultimately paid off, now materialising into McGinnis’ burgeoning music career.
Despite ‘Geronimo’ being Tyler’s recorded debut, it must be noted that the American singer-songwriter has been performing around Washington State for some time now, both solo and with others. Boasting past militancy in the band The Hipocrats, McGinnis has now racked up the courage and the songs to delve into the music industry under his own name. It’s a powerful move, one that showcases the inherent charisma and confidence shared by the talented creative. If you are into Americana at all, you are bound to love ‘Geronimo’.
Simply, it’s an incredibly relatable and vibrant piece, a hopeful and bright single that’s lyrically expressive as it is musically evocative. The chorus is particularly catchy and playful, transforming Tyler’s personal experience into a kinetic, euphoric word puzzle. In true Country style, there’s a hint of euphoria in it, a hidden push to shine a light on an otherwise darker reality.
Delving deeper into ‘Geronimo’, we are told: “It invites listeners to not only enjoy a catchy melody, but to feel the narrative at its core: the brave decision to jump before you know how it ends, a universal sentiment rendered in honest lyricism and warm musicality.”
