Sad, classic country music served up with a side of heartache and tears -
We tried to paint a picture of a white picket fence love-story that suddenly went sideways…
Does this song mess with your heart strings?
Well, listen to the lyrics and you tell me -
So much hearsay in everything you're hearing
Can't trust a thing people say these days
It seems
I was thinking maybe March or April
She'd come back around
But she's gone off and left me
And I can't see it now
That white picket fence with pink roses blooming
Love in her eyes as we stare at the moon, in
A picture I paint in my mind time and time again
My future was all worked out
But I can't see it now
Those romantic strolls down by the water
Got lost in my brain and all of it's clutter
And I forgot what counts
Until time ran out on
That white picket fence with pink roses blooming
Love in her eyes as we stare at the moon, in
A picture I paint in my mind time and time again
My future was all worked out
But I can't see it now
Yeah, I had it all worked out
But I can't see it now

My favourite country is classic, from Keith Whitley to George Jones and so many others. The list is long.
The song “I Can’t See It Now” breaks my heart and brings a tear to my eye, but it also makes me smile.
Because it’s true, pure classic country music - those kinda songs I consider good therapy.
18 and Life new single release announcement
It blows my mind to think that I’m announcing the release the song “18 and Life” today.
I look back a long time ago rocking out to this song by one of my favorite Canadian artists, Sebastian Bach of the band Skid Row. Never thought I’d be releasing the song as a country artist all these years later.
Goes to show, you just never know what can happen in life and music.
You can preorder the single here, and thanks in advance.
- the Canadian Country Outlaw, Sheldon Tyacke
Playing at The White Elephant in Fort Worth Texas
I was watching the show 1883 with my folks up in Porcupine Plain, Saskatchewan and saw The White Elephant, a bar in the Fort Worth Stockyards in Texas, U.S.A. I just played at a few weeks ago.
In the show, the sheriff character of Billy Bob Thornton shot someone at The White Elephant and Tim McGraw was in the scene, too.
My folks were like holy crap! that’s where Sheldon was.
The White Elephant website tells all about the story of the famous shoot out. Learn more on History.net here .
Thanks to my buddy Taylor Lewis for taking me to the Stockyards, and Rachel Stacy for letting me get up to play one of my songs.
Canadian Outlaw Country Tattoos
Q&A with Canadian Outlaw Country Artist Sheldon Tyacke about tattoos
Sheldon’s Nashville guitar tattoo
Q: What made you want to get your first tattoo?
A: I like art, and especially the art of tattoos.
For me they define what a person is. Some people just have random sleeves, or whatever. That’s not me.
All my tattoos, except maybe for a few drunken ones, have meaning.
I’ve actually been patted on the shoulder from a couple tattoo artists, letting me know that they appreciate my outlook on tattoos.
They said that they like that I do a little bit of research into what tattoos I want on my body, the meaning and such, before I get one.
I got my first tattoo because I thought it was cool, and because hot chicks like tattoos.
Q: What was your first tattoo?
A: My first tattoo was a silhouette of a wolf howling at the moon. I got it at a place called the Shamballa in Edmonton, Alberta.
I remember when we were writing the song “Tattoos and Guitars,” my cowriter Amanda was asking me to tell the story about my tattoo art. In true Amanda fashion, right off the bat, she was trying to get at the story.
You’ll notice that we put a few of the images, including “Shamballa” into the song “Tattoos and Guitars.”
Q: What would be your advice to somebody who is thinking about getting their first tattoo?
A: I would say put some thought into the tattoo. Don’t just get a random piece of art on your arm. Especially if you’re drinking, and you’re going to regret it the next day.
If you’re going to put some ink in you, put some thought into it and get something that is meaningful to you or to your life.
Q: Does it hurt to get a tattoo?
A: Hell yeah. But some spots are not as painful as others.
The most painful spot I have gotten a tattoo is my sternum, solar plexus area – where it’s a really bony area.
It’s like the old westerns when I should have been biting on a stick when they were taking the bullet out, that kind of thing.
And the rib cage kind of sucks, too.
Q: What else should I know about getting tattoos?
A: I always remember to check what the tattoo artist is using. If he’s using brand new, sterilized needles.
If it looks sketchy, don’t do it. Go somewhere else.
Cleanliness, and the professionalism of the tattoo artist is something you should really check out.
Q: Do you regret any of your tattoos?
A: Not at all.
Q: Do you ever find yourself in conversations with strangers about tattoos?
A: All the time. Whether it be at the supermarket, or traveling the world.
I always have people asking me about different tattoos.
For instance, the one with the guitar gets commented on a lot. People always comment on the detail of it.
Of course there’s the ones I can’t show everybody because I’d have to take my pants off. (laughs)
Here’s an original song by Sheldon Tyacke Canadian Outlaw Country artist called “Tattoos and Guitars”
“The only thing I let get near my heart - tattoos and guitars”
