NEW YORK CITY GOT LUCKY ON A TUESDAY NIGHT - Ty Myers performed under the Manhattan skyline at Pier 17 while the city was already lit up from the Knicks final game. Fans had their phones out checking the score throughout the night. Ty Myers or Knicks? NYC said both.
Myers stopped in New York for the third show of his Legal Tour, and the crowd showed up fully dressed for it – denim, cowboy boots and cowboy hats packed the venue from the pit to the back. This is his first tour and a sold out NYC show, and you could feel exactly why.
Openers Benny G and Brent Cobb both delivered sets that got the crowd warmed up and ready. Fans weren’t just there for the headliner – they were just as locked in for the opening acts. Looking around, you could tell some people were discovering their new favorites in real time. Both of them walked away with some new fans that night.
To start off Ty's set, his team threw t-shirts into the pit before a single note was played – and just like that the energy was already through the roof. He opened with “Never Get Tired (of Loving You)”, and the guitar strumming in the song felt like a proper announcement to the night, the kind that gains your attention and makes you wake up. It set the tone perfectly.
From there, his setlist only got better. “Me Neither" from his 2026 album Heavy On The Soul hit hard – one of my personal favorites – and the crowd knew they were in for a good night. “Message To You” followed, and at that point people were losing it.
Kennadi Rose, who is touring with Ty, stepped up and delivered. Her voice is absolutely beautiful and fits the band like she’s always been a part of it. She serves vocals every single time.
One of the standout moments of the night was “Two Trains” – a Heavy On The Soul deep cut featuring Marcus King. The horns and drums were everything/ You could hear every layer of the band clearly, and Ty was gunning for that Aretha Franklin energy. He got it. Then came “Morning Comes”, and tears were definitely flowing.
He performed “But Me”, a song that fans didn’t think would be performed live. The room just erupted.
He threw in a Tyler Childers cover of “Feathered Indians” and couples were up on each other's shoulders, swaying in the air. “Stay” from his earlier album brought out the fans who have been with him since the beginning – you could see it in their faces. “Drinkin’ Alone”, “Through a screen”, and “Ends of the Earth” followed, the latter featuring an interpolation of John Mayer’s “Gravity” that felt seamless. He also performed his newly released cover of “Valerie” that was stunning.
He ended the night with “Thought It Was Love” and threw his guitar picks out into the crowd before walking off stage. Nineteen songs. Sold out. Under the Manhattan skyline on a Knicks win night.
Ty Myers is just 18 years old, already headlining a sold-out tour and opening for artists like Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, and Tim McGraw. The talent is undeniable, the band is incredible, and his future is incredibly bright. New York, we were lucky to have him.
