Tyrone has been the opening act for Boney James, Pieces of A Dream, Aaron Neville,Regina Belle and many more. A keyboardist and a drummer who now resides in Norfolk Va. After the success of his freshman new-wave jazz cd called "THE 5TH SEAL" he is all set to release the follow-up cd called "UNBOSSED and UNBOUGHT". He has transformed into a front man, as well as vocalist; Tyrone is a babyboomer, thats why when you go to his live concerts you may hear some KANSAS, TOTO, OR ASIA type movements and licks; Or soulful KANYE WEST type grooves {THEY ARE BOTH FROM THE MIDWEST}. Never-the-less from the pool table to the kitchin floor Testy's music is always cohesive to the heartbeat of a warm blooded women. Hear ye him as he breaks the rules, and usher in this neo-soul, new-wave jazz. BE PEACE!!!!!!!
