About Me

www.nicktyson.com Hello. I play guitar and bass with a number of different bands in Leeds, 'THE LION TRIO'; 'EAST PARK REGGAE COLLECTIVE'; 'SLEAZE ORCHESTRA'; 'TYSON'S GLEE CLUB'; and IDST. I went to school at LCM, which was okay, because I got to meet the musicians I play with now, and I have a degree. More music of these bands can be found at www.myspace.com/theliontrio; /sleaze orchestra; /eastparkreggaecollective or by following the links in the friends section below. The Lion Trio debut album is set for release as a CD any day now. 'Tyson's Glee CLub' album is set for release in april/may 2008; 'Sleaze Orchestra' and 'EPRC' albums have just been recorded. If you want to buy our music get in touch.I have also undertaken a fair amount of teaching of late, and am available for both individual and group lessons in popular & Jazz styles, as well as classical, around the Leeds area.If you're interested in booking any of the above bands, please do not hesitate to contact me on here or via e-mail to [email protected].
