TIA'S BIOGRAPHY
Sultry songwriter, keyboardist and vocalist Tia, developed her unique blend of R&B and traditional vocal pop with hints of contemporary folk due in large part to her unique upbringing. Born in Fort Lee, Virginia, this southern bell quietly grew up in Killeen, Texas. Her father sparked her love for music at the tender age of 4. Listening to her Father and Mother sing throughout her home, music became an instant love for her.
During her teenage years, Tia played the clarinet and piano which helped her to develop a great sense of harmonic structure. Later Tia put her musical talents on the back burner, and worked towards earning a degree in Computer Networking and Systems Administration at Texas State Technical College in Waco, TX.

After graduation, Tia decided to be closer to immediate family and moved Houston, TX. Tia was inspired to tap back into her writing due to her love for music. She became a keyboardist and vocalist for the R&B group âImpromptuâ and later (2002) joined another R&B band âSomething Uniqueâ as a keyboardist and background vocalist. Tia has worked for the television court show Texas Justice and Judge Alex on FOX26 and also has been trained in Television Production. Having both raw talent and continuing her education in television production, and currently Business Management, Tia is not only able to create music, but use television as her media source.
