This is not your average piano girl. Singer songwriter Tiff Jimber holds nothing back when she plays, smashing out rhythms and dancing on her toes. Consistently compared to Sara Bareilles and Ben Folds, this lady showcases her diverse jazz and classical training in catchy pop songs conjured up by her influences, Billy Joel, John Mayer, Nina Simone and Adele. Tiff describes her music as:

Looks like__a purple piano in 4'' heels Smells like__fresh baked cookies Tastes like__Jaeger spilled on ivory Feels like___ a bathtub of aloe vera gel Sounds like__Sara Bareilles and Ben Folds

Tiff grew up in sunny San Diego and was forced to take piano lessons. Luckily, this hobby quickly grew into a passion. At age 17 Tiff released her first self-produced album of original songs, Never Takes Too Much. Tiff was accepted to the prestigious Berklee College of Music where she graduated with a dual degree in Songwriting and Music Production/Engineering.

After graduation, Tiff moved to Los Angeles where she currently resides in a two-car garage that she shares with one dead cockroach. She is no stranger to the hardships and sacrifices one must make for a dream to come true. As if living in a garage wasn’t rough enough she sleeps in her car while out on the road touring the nation. Under DIY in the dictionary, there is a picture of Tiff practicing, booking, promoting, writing, and managing her career. She books all her own tours, plays over 100 shows a year and handles all marketing and scheduling, all while meticulously crafting her songs.

Tiff released her second full-length album, Burning At Both Ends in Sept. 2009 on Cormac Records. The new album was featured in Us Weekly Magazine catching the eyes of many fans. The album was financed through a fundraising campaign solely organized by Tiff and her loyal fans, with proceeds totaling over $10,000. Each song on the new album is a delicious bite of pop music with intricate, catchy melodies that feature Tiff’s talent and passion for playing the piano. This new album introduces listeners to a few quirky instruments; the accordion and stylophone. Tiff collaborated with Producer Matt Bobb, who produced and co-wrote numerous tracks on the album, along with Producer Oren Hadar, who co-wrote and produced the track, “People Always Go.” With the creative talents of Bobb and Hadar and the amazing musicianship of Eli Hludzick (Drums), Jonny Morrow (Bass) and Chris Peterson (Guitar), the new album is a gem amongst piano pop albums and has already won numerous contests and received honorable mention for the songs “City Life” and “Skin Me.” "Love That You Need" was place in a Apple.com movie promo for The Blind Side.

Since moving to Los Angeles Tiff has engineered and assisted on many projects and played in several bands, including Phil Collins; Blink 182; The Foo Fighters; Queensrÿche to name a few. She also sang on vocal tracks for movies such as, The Grudge (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Hide and Seek (Robert De Niro), and the Love Happens (Jennifer Anniston). She most recently opened for the Marcy Playground, and has opened for San Diego Symphony, White Buffalo, Marie Digby, and Meiko. The Los Angeles Music Awards nominated Tiff's first full-length album Obstacles-2005, AAA Album of the year. She was awarded the ASCAP Plus Award 2010, 2011, 2012. “City Life” received honorable mention from Billboard and placed in the Australian Songwriting Contest.
