William Tyler – “A Portrait Of Sarah”

Nashville-based William Tyler’s guitar meditations are steeped in Americana and ramble in a manner evocative of the open road, all winding highways and byways and uncanny valleys. And so the video for “A Portrait Of Sarah,” from this year’s Impossible Truth, is a fittingly filmic bit — and an overt homage to the 1971 roadtrip flick Two-Lane Blacktop. That film starred James Taylor. Here, William Tyler stars, as James Taylor. Sometimes life just makes sense.
