Tyler played for the the grand opening celebration of our shop and we couldn't have been happier with our choice of entertainment. All our guests loved his music and we got many compliments during the event. We are very pleased to have found him and will certainly be hiring him again for any other future special events.

We had such a fun show with Tyler and even though it was 105 degrees outside, he maintained an upbeat spirit and energetic performance. He took time to talk with our guests, interacted personally with the crowd and engaged everyone young and old. Tyler tailored the music for our event to include a variety of country, rockabilly and oldies to entertain our crowd. We received lots of compliments and several of our guests want to book Tyler for their future events.

Natalie, this was my favorite show yet this year (no offense to all my awesome clients below!!) It was a blast to check out all the hot rods and hear the guys revving their engines. SO LOUD! The food trucks were a hit too, and the bouncy castle for the kids. You are an incredible hostess and I know that Iron Horse RV is going to be an AMAZING business for you and Raymond. Congratulations again, and hope to see you at Rickey's party in Medina Lake later this summer!!

Tyler absolutely killed it. I threw a surprise birthday party for my bestie and Tyler made the experience unforgettable. He is really the best. Quick setup, played all our favorites, interacted with everyone, and made my girl feel extra special. I’m telling you, stop thinking and just book. Definitely rebooking myself. Just a gem for the San Antonio-Austin area!

Tyler went above and beyond on his performance. He entertained and executed all songs flawlessly and even threw a bit of pleasant surprises on his performance. His equipment and presentation were remarkable (lights were amazing) . He has a great playlist and all songs were amazing. Highly recommend him. Thank you Tyler for playing for Stephanie’s birthday party!

Tyler is extremely talented and was a pleasure to work with. He was responsive, friendly, provided great recommendations on the itinerary of the evening, and most importantly he had a lovely vareity of background music that was perfect for our annual customer appreciation event. I look forward to hiring him again next year.

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  I'm not cheap, but I do my best to be affordable. I'm happy to work with you on price and try to provide a quote that fits your budget. Pricing varies based on factors such as: - Show Duration - Travel Distance/Time - Setlist/Song Requests - Parking/Accommodations - Equipment Needs - Etc.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  Learning about you and your vision for your event is my first priority. I'm easy to work with and a great communicator - you can count on me to respond quickly, cater to your needs, and make the planning process efficient and enjoyable. Once you've indicated interest, we'll set up a quick call to discuss your event. If it seems like a good fit, we'll confirm details, deliverables, and price. Following that, I'll just need a quick signature on my performance agreement and 50% initial payment from you to reserve the date. Any updates or changes regarding plans or preparation can be communicated between booking and the day of the event. Final payment is due two weeks prior to the event. On the day of your event, I'll arrive 1 to 2 hours before showtime, set up promptly, deliver an amazing performance, and teardown neatly - you won't have to lift a finger!

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  Since 2009 I’ve played over 1200 shows at venues and event spaces around the world, and I’ve worked with hundreds of managers and planners to successfully put on all kinds of wonderful concerts and special events. Over the years I’ve gained real-world experience in everything from setlist curation to sound engineering, stage performance, and client success - I’m a seasoned entertainment professional and your event is in good hands!
