Jason Tyler Burton

Jason Tyler Burton is a songwriter whose brand of folk and Americana music navigates life’s complexities through vivid imagery and stories. With a voice that carries both tenderness and strength, he crafts songs that invite you to lean in a little, and really listen. 

Life has recently taken him to the high desert of southern Utah where he is a college educator who teaches students about the benefits of spending time in nature. This deep connection to the natural world greatly influences his writing and he has built a reputation for crafting road-trip ready songs featuring heartfelt lyricism that draws listeners into shared moments of sorrow, laughter, and hope.

Six years after his last album, Jason Tyler Burton returns with Passage(s), a collection of ten songs shaped by the passage of time, grief, and building resilience. The album is both a reflection and an offering, with songs that hold space for sorrow while pointing toward healing and possibility, and every song marking a passage toward something new.

Those who have listened to his previous work will find familiar themes, references to previous songs, and even recording styles. On the final song of the album, titled My Last Song, Burton reflects on his body of work, and closes the album with the line "I want to be proud of where this story goes".
