Back in the 1960s, Ian Tyson started out his musical career in folk. His music got a second wind when he moved into cowboy country.
Now, at the age of 72, he's flirting with a mellower, jazzier sound on his latest album, "Songs From the Gravel Road." Tyson will sing those tunes when he appears at the Shedd on Wednesday.
"I wanted some different textures, some different colors," Tyson said in a phone interview from his cattle ranch in Alberta, Canada.
