Claire and I are back in Pittsburgh; our second home. I would love to write that it's because I'm on tour, in support of the ultra-fantastic WHICH WAY TO THE STARLITE, but, alas, it is mainly my wife's business…

I'm sitting in my studio, typing away to the sounds of shoveling, snowblowing, yelling kids and barking dogs. It must be March in western New York! I don't think I'll ever share the obsession of driveway clearing displayed by our…

Have you ever read something that, without missing a beat, articulates to the letter, how you feel about something. Well, Aaron Timms has done just that for me and I've included that very article that simply nailed it. 

I will…

Back in December of '22, I had the privilege of meeting Rochester-based Jazz Trio CMD (Casey Filiaci on piano, Mark Terranova on bass and Dave Cohen on drums) to discuss their plans for releasing their debut album just a song…

…

Happy New Year to everyone! I'm a couple days late to the party, but that's par for the course... I went to bed early and didn't wake up until Monday morning - the last official day off of the season…

Ah...

Herbert Ruggles Tarlek, Jr. Look. I know he wasn't a Used Car Salesman however, he was an awful Sales Manager at the one and only WKRP in Cincinnati. 

That post title says it all. 

Some have asked me why…

In my last post, I mentioned the high cost of doing business with regard to International shipping, and quite honestly shipping in general, of the Which Way to the Starlite Limited Edition CD. Well, problem solved! 

And that solution…

It's been a few weeks since the release of Which Way to the Starlite and things are going pretty much how I thought they would. People are listening through streaming services all around the globe and CDs are selling (a…

Once Steve Forney was on board and we had moved into the new house, writing the lyrics began. This was a painfully slow process for me. I had written several bits, here and there, while living in Pittsburgh and traveling…

Picking up where I left off...

Recording continued, daily, from April '20 to February '21. One hundred and twenty-three songs were completed. It was all music; no words, no vocals. Things slowed a bit because Claire and I had…

In April of 2020 Which Way to the Starlite was titled When You Let Go. I had an idea, musically, how I wanted it to be. I even went so far as to design the cover art for an…

After two and a half years in the making, Which Way to the Starlite quietly hits the racks and all the god-awful streaming platforms on September 30th 2022. It's been quite a run ("I tell you"). 

The album is…

Things are heating up here at Anthony Tyler Music. 

Over the last three weeks or so I have been digging into recording vocals for Which Way to the Starlite and I have to write that things are going well…

Good day, ALL. I hope everyone is well and staying as safe as is possible out there. It's burnin'... just take a look outside your window. What the actual fuck? Seems to be my question of choice lately. 

So…

A little over a year ago I decided to pull my entire catalogue from every streaming service that my music was attached to. That was pretty much all of them and even new ones that were cropping up here and…

A quick update...

The lyrics for Which Way to THE STARLITE, as of Friday, April 8th, are finished!

Over the next couple of weeks I will be getting the old voice up to snuff with some good…

Hello ALL!!!

I'm happy to be checking in with a progress report. Yes. There's been actual progress. Loads!!!

Engineer Steve Forney (Don't Look Back, Black Cat, and Home) has worked his magic on each…

It's Wednesday, December 22nd and we've just solidified the closing date for our new home. Needless to say, the end of 2021 is going to be frantic (just a tad) and also quite exciting. 

It's been a year. I…

Yes. It's December 10th and we're still working out of a 900 square foot box and literally living out of boxes. It's been nine months since our returning to western New York and without much melodrama on my part; it's…

I'm taking some time this morning to go through the past year's work. I'm listening to all the songs recorded from April of 2020 up to today. It's around 123 songs. No joke. My intent, this morning, was to start…

It's been quite a whirlwind of activity for my Partner In Crime, Claire, and I since making the decision to return to western New York having lived and worked in Pittsburgh for the past three years. Basically, we haven't missed…

My wife and I are working from the Holiday Inn Express in Webster, New York. There is a winter storm warning in effect from tonight through Thursday, April 1st. Ha-freaking-ha!!! How ironical. I love western New York!!! I guess this…

The news of Michael Stanley's passing stopped me in my tracks this morning. My wife, Claire, caught me before work began to tell me he had died on Friday, March 5th. I went numb almost immediately. As I write this…

That day has arrived. 

It's February 21, 2021 and it's cold. It's a bit damp. It's, well, it's Pittsburgh and the ice is melting. I was busy yesterday morning cancelling every single one of my releases digitally distributed through…
