Tyler Toliver, a fresh new face on the country music scene, picked up his first guitar at age nine. He explains that it was a hot summer, and he wanted an excuse to stay inside. And in doing so, he set a course for his future that has led to an exciting career as a writer, musician and singer…..and a United States Marine.

Tyler has received accolades from his fans all around the country, that has inspired him to go into the studio and record a 10 song album that should be released by mid spring 2010, Tyler has had the privilege of opening for country music legend Joe Diffie and is in the process of booking performances thoughout Virginia, Maryland, and West Virginia.

The Washington D.C. Barracks magazine “Pass and Review” has just released a four page article on Tyler and his music and he has articles written in the “Bull Run Observer” and “The Montgomery County Journal.”

Tyler was born and raised in Southern Wisconsin, where he grew up running through the woods with his friends, eating bar pizzas, drinking root beer and playing pool. His mother was a bartender in Muskego, and his early cultural influences were country music, pickup trucks and cowboy boots. He loved to imitate Garth Brooks, standing in front of the jukebox with his plastic baseball bat, pretending that it was his guitar.

As a teen, he moved from pretend to the real thing, writing his own music and performing for friends and family, and anyone else who would listen. In high school, Tyler joined the ROTC, and then chose to enlist in the United States Marines upon graduation in 2007. His high school years were punctuated by success – academic honors, owning a general contracting business and receiving honors from the local ROTC.

As a Marine recruit Tyler was named ‘Company Honor Man’ and rose to the rank of Corporal in less than a year. He continues to serve our Country while writing music and performing

Clinton Curtis grew up between the islands of Jamaica and Key West, Florida, the son of musicians and reggaehall owners. As a kid, he played with and learned from some of the Jamaican giants – Gregory Isaacs, Desmond Dekker and Roots Explosion. His mother and father were pioneers of the Jamaican live music scene, managing and promoting many top reggae artists. Clinton was always eager to learn from musicians, and they were happy to teach him. He was an accomplished classical pianist by age 8. By 13, he was fluent on more than a dozen instruments.
At age 18, Clinton moved to New York and began working as a singer while studying acting at NYU. It was there, in Greenwich Village, in the bars and clubs that defined so much of music history, that he realized he wanted to write popular music. He took to it feverishly, writing dozens of songs a month. He teamed up with producer Matt Stine, and signed to indie label 27 Sound.

Currently, Clinton and his band are a fixture in the downtown NY music scene.

Clinton is credited with having the largest crowd ever at the famous Lower East Side venue, The Livingroom, where he plays every month.

Clinton also appeared on FOX’s Fearless Music TV, where he won the most votes of any other act and was brought back by viewers to play the TV show two weeks in a row. Those performances still remain in the top 10 most watched videos on the Fearless Music website.
Clinton’s music represents the coming together of all the musical genres he has been exposed to throughout his life. From Country to Reggae, from Blues to Bach, Clinton Curtis is a throwback to the great songwriters of the 1960’s with the musical versatility and voice of a new artist set on making his mark on today’s popular music landscape.

Friday night’s show will be cancelled due to the inclement weather forecast.
