About Me

DJ Tyler Quinn is currently entrenched in the Baltimore music scene, having blown up all the hot clubs and bars and leaving piles of charred rubble in his wake. Representing the varied sounds of Planet Earth, a typical Tyler Quinn set will be heavy on hip hop, scratching and electronic beats, but includes everything else, "from surf guitar to sitar." Current collaborative exploits include The Wire Orchestra, a spacey 9-piece improv group, Antics Award Show, a mind-melting experimental duo and DJing with The Expanding Man, a fusion-inspired beat-driven trio.
