Details:
Songwriter/Composer/Singer/Musician, Stan Tingle comes from a long line of self-taught musicians going back several generations. Raised in a home where music was always playing either on a turn-table, the radio, or âLIVEâ in the family living room or kitchen, it was inevitable that he would develop this gift into the songs, sounds and emotions you will find in his music.

The 13 tracks on LEGACY were written and recorded over a five year period, and depicts the heart and soul of a new and fresh genre of music Stan refers to as Gospel-HillbillyFunk. Stan plays all of instruments except for a few electric piano tracks performed by his brother. Stanâs daughter, Jessica, performs the lead vocals on the opening track, âLIARSâ, and sings backup harmonies on several others.

Other facts:
Stan has performed in several bands over the years. The last band he performed on stage with was composed of family members. The band was called âNESTâ, and featured older brother Kirby on keyboards and vocals, younger brother Randy on Bass and vocals, daughter Jessica on lead vocals, and Stan on vocals and acoustic/electric guitars. The band was known for their beautiful vocal harmonies and wide spectrum of cover material ranging from ZZ Top and Cream, to Dan Fogleberg and Joan Osborne.

In 2004, Stan wrote the radio jingle for the Washington State Parks radio advertisements. It was an acoustical melody he called âPaulineâs Dreamâ (named after his Granny), and it played on all the Pacific Northwest AM and FM radio stations for over a year.

Stan has also provided guitar and vocal studio session work for other local Pacific Northwest artist.
