About Me

.. (click meeeeeeeeee)

Tigercity is going into the studio to record our first full length album in July. Over the past year we recorded a six song EP and have been constantly touring, all WITHOUT a record label. This has been made possible by the constant support of friends, family, and fans. Please help us pay for our upcoming full length record via Paypal donation by clicking the picture of Aynsley in a blanket above. Anything and everything helps. THANK YOU!!!
P.S. Anyone who donates to our cause will most definitely be listed in the thank you section of our record insert. HOW EXCITING IS THAT OMG

"...An alternative to the Strokesian machismo that has dominated NYC’s rock scene this decade.. Tigercity plays slick pop that takes more cues from Barry White than Gang of Four... The beats induce the same ’80s-era body-rocking that Hall and Oates’s hits did. Unlike so many current bands, Tigercity moves from conventionally cool to categorically cheesy with no audible self-consciousness."

-Christina Black, Time Out New York

"This is everything that we've been talking about for years in one shoe-shuffling sharkskin sensation. Just listen. The production, the beat, the lyrics smooth like a marshmallow on a river of buttered honey. It's all there. This is Hall 'n Oates for the non-ironic set."
