Myers wrote every lyric and note himself, once again proving his knack for marrying timeless songcraft with a perspective that feels fresh, current, and unflinchingly honest. The track was brought to life at the legendary FAME Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, under the guidance of producer Brandon Hood. The two have a well-documented creative chemistry, having worked together on Myers’ debut album The Select, the 2025 breakout that produced the PLATINUM-certified “Ends of the Earth” and the GOLD hits “Thought It Was Love” and “Drinkin’ Alone.”

"Through a Screen” unfolds as a sweeping, moody soundscape. Driving piano lines anchor the melody, while cinematic strings and shimmering guitar textures courtesy of Nashville guitar great Tom Bukovac, whose résumé includes work with Glen Campbell and Vince Gill add an elegant touch. It is a sound built for storytelling, and Myers’ soulful voice glides through it with a mix of conviction and fragility.

What sets the track apart is the intimacy of its narrative. Myers doesn’t shy away from the awkward truths of online romance, opening with the disarmingly simple line: “What’s your favorite color? / Falling for each other / And we ain’t even met.” The song travels through moments of uncertainty, fleeting optimism, and the strange tenderness of forming deep connections through a digital lens. It is a lyrical tightrope walk between hope and hesitation, and Myers balances it with remarkable poise.

For all its sonic grandeur, “Through a Screen” never loses sight of the human story at its core. This is where Myers’ artistry shines brightest, his ability to infuse a modern-day scenario with the emotional resonance of classic country storytelling. The track has already struck a nerve among his fans, many of whom see their own experiences reflected in its verses.

If The Select cemented Myers as a rising star, “Through a Screen” signals that he is more than ready to lead the charge for the next generation of country music. Blending the introspective lyricism of John Mayer with a rich country soul, Ty Myers is crafting a career on connection, authenticity, and the kind of songwriting that turns fleeting moments into timeless music.
