"... the arrangements offer a feisty take on bluegrass mountain music which sets off Childers' perkily engaging delivery splendidly".

"Best of 2017" - "The presence of Sturgill Simpson as producer immediately places Tyler Childers' 2017 album Purgatory within a recognizable lineage of new Americana singers. Simpson, along with the burlier Chris Stapleton, are torch-bearers for the old ways - old ways that became codified in the '70s, when country, folk, string bands, Western swing, R&B, and rock & roll bled together in styles alternately called outlaw and progressive country ... It's an album that feels lived-in, filled with songs etched from hard-earned experiences with music to match".
