Year Of The Tiger (Myles Kennedy Album)
''Year of the Tiger'' is the debut studio album by American musician and singer-songwriter Myles Kennedy. His first release as a solo artist, it was released on March 9, 2018, by Napalm Records. The album is a musical departure from the hard rock music of Kennedy's other projects, instead featuring a stripped-back blues-based sound. A concept album, it explores the death of Kennedy's father in 1974, the year of the Tiger in the Chinese calendar. Critical reception Initial reaction for ''Year of the Tiger'' from music critics has been highly favorable. Hannah May Kilroy of ''Classic Rock'' gave the album 4 out of 5 stars, writing, "essentially ''Year of the Tiger'' sounds like Alter Bridge relocated to the deep south—if they swapped their hard rock riffs for bluesy twangs" and "the final message is one of finding hope in the darkness, and it’s evident that making ''Year of the Tiger'' has been a therapeutic experience for Kennedy and should be celebrated."
