All influences got together and jammed. Then brought in an original voice with a unique vocal style. Lyrics were finally written by a poet that had a long history of bad break ups and an unbreakable string of bad luck. All that is missing is the guy who made the "shit happens t-shirt".

Tyler's musical career has undergone numerous changes. A guitarist and piano player for over 10 years, his musical talents consist of reading, writing and numerous playing styles. Tyler started with classical piano pieces before picking up a guitar. His first was a nylon-stringed classical before jumping to Metallica-esque electric guitar playing. Tyler has more recently found his niche in styles similar to that of John Mayer & James Blunt.
Tyler has been singing and touring with tribute acts and rock bands for the last 6 years and is now performing solo originals and working on a funk side-project with a group of excellent musicians.
Original songs will soon be posted once recording is finished. Expect to hear a different style of R&B, which Tyler deems as Rock & Blues. You will hear the influences listed on different tracks: From piano ballads like "Open Door" to rock tracks like "This Time" and "Unjustified", it is difficult to classify Tyler in a single genre. Throw in blues inspired songs such as "9 to 5" with a dash of acoustic, campfire tunes like "A simple list" and you have a very well-rounded album.
Tyler's solo debut EP entitled "My Life: Chapter 1" tells stories of heartache and headache, while his humorous personality shines throughout simultaneously. The 14 song album will be available online by approximately early February with audio samples available in the next few weeks.
