The music was perfect for our Lakefest!

Tyler was perfect. He is an exceptional musician and gave us a wonderful concert. Everyone at our lake fest raved about Tyler. He was very accommodating to the audience and he made the lake association sure that they hired the right act. We can't wait to hire him again.

A Great Twist on a Traditional Wedding

Tyler was easy to work with and very responsive. He was dedicated and creative and worked with us as we changed our minds a million times to see our vision through. Our guests commented on how creative and cool the music was.

My new in laws have already booked him for their 35th anniversary party.

Thank You Tyler!

About

I am an avid performer and educator who seeks to provide a unique, fun, and professional experience to my audiences. A native of Lake in the Hills, IL, I attended Northern Illinois University where I received my bachelor's degree in Steel Pan and Music Education, studying under steel pan legends Liam Teague and Cliff Alexis. I have performed locally and internationally including venues in the Chicagoland Area, Rhode Island, Nebraska, Trinidad and Tobago, Ireland, The Netherlands, and now Key West, Florida. I have performed in many venues throughout Key West, FL and Chicago, IL in collaboration with local musicians for event performances as well as providing wedding ceremony and cocktail hour music.
