Bob Tyler
direct from Nashville by way of East Hartford
Singer
songwriter Bob Tyler, who was born and raised in East Hartford, has
delighted audiences throughout the country with his poignant
tongue-in-cheek music that expresses comical reflections on his life
with a sensitive and caring flavor.
“As
a writer and performer, Tyler's lyrical inventiveness and refusal to
take himself too seriously bring to mind Randy Newman with a guitar and
a better voice (albeit a less distinctive one). Even at their most
earnest, Tyler's tunes favor slice-of-life observations over big-ticket
bombast. For example, "This City Could Be Diamonds," an eight-minute
opus about small-town dreams, avoids the desperate escapism that's
fueled many a Top 40 anthem”
- John Jesitus of Westward Magazine, of Denver.
Tyler has performed in venues too numerous to count. From the famed
Bluebird Café in Nashville to The White House. His two CD’s, “The Other
Bob and “Nothing to Be Afraid Of” will be available in the lobby on the
night of the show. Tyler is working on his third CD that promises to be
just as finely crafted as his first two.
