Brent Tyler has released his first independent solo recording titled Better Way, a mix of singer/songwriter modern folk-pop with a wide variety of musical influences, though not entirely indicative of his live performance. MusicEmissions.com said, "Better Way is a great introduction to a very talented songwriter but in order to fully appreciate Brent Tyler you have to see him in a live setting. This is where he really shines."

Prolific playing with his band or simply a man and his guitar, Brent's rhythmic and percussive style along with warm and generous vocals create an invigorating yet soothing sound. Alaina Fraser (Venue Owner) stated, "Luckily this extra tall man has room to house the massive lungs he must have. The power of Brent's voice is an awesome thing." Able to play a wide range of instruments with skilled proficiency, Tyler began writing and creating music from an early age. Playing the guitar for 18 years and drums for 15 years Brent has developed a large repertoire scanning multiple styles and genres. Matt Chomistek from the UofC Gauntlet said, "...Tyler's technical proficiency on the guitar shines through on the album giving just a taste of what he could do in a live setting. With Better Way, Tyler writes honestly, sings powerfully, and plays skillfully."

Tyler has played throughout western Canada in various bands, duos, and trios gaining experience in a number of different live settings from small intimate venues, vibrant clubs, crowded pubs, outdoor festivals, jungle amphitheatres, to large theatres, showcasing his big and beautiful voice and aggressive acoustic sound. Adaptable to any venue size, style or location, Tyler's professionalism and dedication to performing high quality music make him a crowd favourite at venues he frequently plays. Pete Bourke, manager of Calgary's premier acoustic music venue said, "Brent has given us his professionalism, dedication, loyalty, passion, and natural talent in many different environments. Whether he has been hosting our jam, playing for a fundraiser or special event, taking part in a songwriters event, or showcasing his skills in a solo performance, Brent always impresses all that come to see him perform."

Recently transplanting himself to the Vancouver scene from Calgary, Tyler continues to pursue his love of performing through a variety of covers and originals, louds and softs, power and subtlety, hooks and simplicity. Please visit www.brentyler.com for more on this big man.
