Over the past year, Tyler Nance has really started to make a name for himself in the country music world. Coming from small town Missouri and only 22 years old, he has put in a lot of work, especially on social media where his consistency and authenticity have helped him build a real fanbase. Earlier this year, “Keeps Me Sane” took off like a rocket, racking up 75 million streams, landing among the top viral songs in the world, debuting on SiriusXM’s The Highway, and becoming the second most added song on country radio. Now we get a brand new twist on the track featuring the girls from The Castellows, and it feels like a natural next chapter in a breakout moment that is still gaining speed.
I’ve known Tyler for a bit now. He’s been a two time guest on Outside The Round, and he has played our in town shows and Raised Rowdy events multiple times. From the jump, he has been one of those artists you root for because he works hard, treats people right, and brings real heart to what he does.
This new release, “Keeps Me Sane (feat. The Castellows)”, feels like one of those early career moments that will age incredibly well. Teaming up with a trio whose voices are as distinct and powerful as The Castellows gives the song a fresh energy while highlighting Tyler in the best way possible. I think this collaboration will be looked back on as a major step in his artistic evolution.
“It was always a dream of mine to collaborate with another artist,” Nance shared. “The way the original version took off blew my mind and getting to work with The Castellows and film this video together is something I’ll always remember.”
The collaboration feels natural and seamless. The Castellows’ harmonies lift Nance’s voice and add depth without losing the emotional weight of the original.
Directed by Preston Hoffman, the music video brings emotional storytelling to the forefront and showcases Tyler’s steady evolution as an artist.
Tyler Nance has had a wild year with radio tours, skyrocketing streams, viral traction and a wave of new fans discovering his music. Now he is gearing up for an even bigger chapter. He was recently invited to join Ian Munsick for 11 dates on the Eagle Flies Free Tour beginning in February 2026, hitting Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota.
For an artist this early in his career to be pulling these kinds of numbers, these kinds of opportunities and this level of industry attention is impressive and completely deserved. Tyler writes raw, personal songs. He works. He shows up. He cares about the craft. You cannot fake that in this town.
“Keeps Me Sane (feat. The Castellows)” is more than a re release. It is a stamp on where Tyler Nance is headed. The future is very bright for him and this collaboration feels like the kind of exciting moment that will be remembered as his career continues to level up.
