Hugely talented Nashville rockers Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown have premiered the video for their groove-laden track Backfire exclusively with Planet Rock.
Directed by Erik Kaufmann, Backfire is the second single to be taken from the Shakedown’s revered self-titled album, out now on Snakefarm Records, following the fiery Heartland single…
‘‘Backfire’ is a straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll jam, so we thought it needed a straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll video,” says vocalist / guitarist Tyler. “There’s no acting, no storyline, just rocking! We kicked around a ton of ideas playing off the lyrics of the song, but eventually we decided to do what we do best – plug in and play. We hope this video captures the kind of energy you’d experience at a Shakedown show.’
Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown have also been nominated in Planet Rock’s very own The Rocks. Spawned as a response to the Rock genre frequently being overlooked by the largest British music awards events, The Rocks looks to celebrate the greatest achievements in rock music, both in the UK and beyond. The band are up for two awards, nominated in the ‘Best International Album’ and ‘Best New Band’ categories. Voting is open to the public and closes at 14:00 on Monday February 19th.

Having released their most recent studio album on November 3rd last year, TBSD are now looking ahead to March when they step out with Georgia natives Blackberry Smoke for a run of US dates, in addition to continuing their own headline ‘Ramblin’ Bones’ tour Stateside.
