Tyler Collins

The Grice Connect team wants to give a shout out to Dylan's tour manager Tyler Collins who is also a Statesboro native. It takes a lot of magic behind the scene to pull of a tour or even a concert.

We recommend following both Dylan and Tyler on instagram and other social media outlets. Tyler gives you a wonderful inside look of what life on the road is like touring with superstars and what it takes to put on an amazing show in a multiple cities in a week.

Tyler is Grice Connect's founders, DeWayne and Lori Grice, nephew so all of us on the Grice Connect team are proud of Tyler, Dylan and their entire team for chasing this amazing dream.
