May 3, 2026Great entertainer for Retirement party
Tyler provided music for our backyard party celebrating my husband’s retirement. He was a good communicator throughout the process, and a true professional. The music was a perfect complement to our party. He gladly accepted our requests for songs. Enjoyed having him!

April 20, 2026Our guests were genuinely impressed!
Tyler was absolutely fantastic! His voice is truly beautiful, and his guitar playing added such a warm and inviting atmosphere to our event. He came incredibly well prepared with a great selection of songs that perfectly suited the occasion. Beyond his talent, Tyler has a very elegant presence and carries himself with such professionalism and charm. Our guests were genuinely impressed, and he made the evening feel extra special. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and memorable performer!

October 19, 2025Highly Recommend Dick Preston
We hosted 50 or so people for a family reunion at our house over the weekend. It would normally take a few days for me to get around to writing a review, but Dick Preston put on such a memorable, enjoyable performance that I couldn't wait! Dick's professionalism while booking, his song choices and friendliness during the evening, his amazing talent on the guitar, and his great voice made our evening so memorable! Dick, you've got a bunch of new fans in the Lange family! We highly, highly recommend Dick Preston for unforgettable music for any event!

Jessica, I can’t tell you how much this means to me — what a night that was! Your whole family was an absolute joy, and I loved getting to be part of such a special reunion. Thanks again for having me out (and for the kind words!) — hope our paths cross again down the road. – Dick Preston

September 15, 2025Dick Preston put on a fantastic show!
Dick Preston and his band made my event! I organized a client reception for our company, and Dick put on a fantastic show. As the event organizer it felt amazing to have everyone out dancing with the band I had booked! We've had other bands in the past but we've never had so many guests stay until the full end of the reception. Got lots of comments and compliments from my guests, and even from my boss! I highly recommend Dick Preston and will certainly be hiring them again!

November 11, 2024Tyler Gave Is. Night to Remember!
Tyler Preston played at a dinner party for my granddaughter who celebrated her Sweet 16. We chose Tyler specifically because of his vocal ability; we liked his style, but there was more.
Tyler was professional and worked with what we made available—the bed of a pick-up truck for his stage.
Not only was his rate reasonable, he did a great job! His vocals, musical style, and experience reading the room made for a fantastic time. He engaged our guests, played music that entertained all ages, and kept the evening flowing beautifully. We thoroughly enjoyed the three hour set to the fullest and his performance made for a memorable evening.
We highly recommend Tyler to others for his professionalism and courtesy. His attendance at our event made us so glad that we did not opt for a DJ—he made it a night to remember, and for this we will call on him again.

What to expect
"Tyler Preston is the real deal. Professional, responsive, punctual and a gem to work with. And then there's his performance, which was absolutely spot on. So much so, typically sedentary guests were chewing up the dance floor. As the owner of a talent agency, I've worked with a number of artists, both celebrity and regional. Tyler is among the best of them. Book him and you're sure to have a worry-free, high-energy experience." — Anthony Bollotta | Bollotta Entertainment
"Tyler was absolutely perfect for our corporate event! He was professional, funny, engaging and great at announcements (especially when speaking to our employees). Everyone thoroughly enjoyed him and loved hearing their song requests. Can't wait to have him back! Thank you Tyler! One more thing….He is an AMAZING singer and guitar player - both acoustic and electric!" —Kendra McMains | LPL Financial
"With very little pre-event direction, Tyler read the crowd expertly, picking perfect songs one after another. Ranging from Country to Rock, to Blues and everything in-between, Tyler provided an amazing experience for me and my colleagues. In fact, during our set, the hotel event coordinator asked for his contact information because she was so impressed. I highly recommend him for your next event." —Chris Macinkowicz | VFW National Office
About
Born into a military family and raised on the road, Tyler Preston never had a hometown. He never drove a tractor. He never roped a steer. He never went fishing in the creek. He never climbed the local water tower to paint his girlfriend's name on the side.
Instead, ever since he cut the apron strings, Preston has made a name for himself on the highways and byways of this great land, rockin' and rollin’ back and forth from coast to coast with nothing but his trusty guitar and duffel bag tow, in search of the American Dream and in love with the freedom of the open road.
Point being: Tyler Preston may not be your typical country troubadour, but he's the genuine article: road-worn, friendly, and honest to a fault, with a beat up old guitar case full of songs that will speak to your heart.
Preston's style infuses classic country, southern rock, and americana with his finger lickin' chicken pickin' and soulful twang to create a unique, timeless sound that has drawn comparison to left-of-the-dial country artists like Chris Stapleton, Sturgill Simpson, and Eric Church.
On record, his music glides seamlessly from acoustic ballads to swampy boogies and everywhere in between, while onstage he's a riveting entertainer with a magnetic personality and a 1000-watt smile.
Since 2009, Tyler Preston has performed throughout the US, playing 200+ shows a year in Austin, Nashville, Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, San Francisco, Seattle, and more. Career highlights include opening slots for Wade Bowen, Trampled By Turtles, and Aaron Lewis, and most recently he was awarded 2021 Entertainer of The Year by the Farson Group.
When he's not on the road, Tyler enjoys spending time at home with his wife and kids and seeking out new and exotic varieties of hot sauce for his extensive collection.
