Episode 129: Tyler Mullendore’s New Single “Living the Dream” Reflects on Glory Days Passed

Tyler Mullendore, born from the soul of Lake Ainslie Cape Breton (the witness protection capital of the world according to Mike!), masterfully blends rough-and-tumble roots rock with the electrified emotion of southern-fried Americana. His music channels the heart-wrenching wistfulness of Bob Seger and the lyrical introspection of John Prine, all driven by a classic rock pulse made even more compelling by the remarkable band behind him. A finalist on Canadian Idol, Tyler’s authenticity as a songwriter was affirmed when he won eOne's national "Big Break" competition. On today's episode, we celebrate Tyler's personal growth and reflection as both a musician and a songwriter. We delve into how being thrust into the spotlight at a young age impacted his journey, the valuable lessons he’s learned from these experiences, and how true happiness for him lies in the deep connections he fosters with family and community.
