Tyler is the ultimate triple threat- live music (sax + piano), DJ, and emcee. I originally met Tyler at a friends wedding and loved him so much, we decided to fly him to Arizona for our wedding. You know how I know he KILLED IT? More people were looking at him vs me (the bride). I promise, you will not regret hiring him. LOVED Tyler. -

Tyler took our extremely unique vision and captured it perfectly. From a sunset ceremony with the sweet sounds of his piano to the lively saxophone and versatile DJing, he was truly incredible. Beyond just checking off what we asked of him, he interacted with guests, took time and effort to ensure he knew what was important to us, and he was relatable and fun. 10/10 would recommend him for your wedding or event. He is amazing!
