Drumming Support
With over 18 years of experience playing to crowds of all sizes, Tyler is comfortably uncomfortable with many different genres, performances, and styles. Tyler is able to quickly and efficiently learn existing tracks and sets for shows on as little as 1 week of preparation time. Tracks are memorized (not read from a book) to maximize the ability to listen and be present with the other performers, creating an organic, unique performance every time.
​
​Tyler's drumming style is an ideal choice for the following genres:
-
Rock
-
Metal

Country
-
Funk
