About Me


Family Lumber is the solo work of Mike Tietjen. Please come to a show to see him and his band :)

"With a set combining electric and acoustic songs, Family Lumber showcases their depth and originality that you’ll be sure not to miss" - BreakThruRadio.com

"...the unplugged indie rock of lumber resides in layers of acoustic guitar that can trace its footsteps from hayden to folk implosion to kevin devine" - Advance Copy
