About Tyler Brooks

Music and creativity have always been major components of my life. I’ve always been extremely fascinated in stories; both experiencing others’ and sharing my own in a wide array of forms, whether it be fiction, poetry, or music. I think that artistic expression and storytelling are the most potent and healing forces we have in that they can share histories, empower communities, change people’s lives forever. Art has definitely had a profound impact on me, and I want my own to have the same impact on others.

I wrote my first song in preschool, my first short story in kindergarten. Getting lost in my own imagination and writing down what I find there is something I’ve loved to do for as long as I can remember, and something I want to continue for the rest of my life. I come from a huge family where almost everyone plays an instrument or sings. My father especially.

He and his siblings had a band that would record and travel and he still has all his recording equipment in the house. I remember hearing my dad playing his own music way into the early morning hours when I was a kid. I took piano and guitar lessons when I was younger and kept those skills with me my whole life. However, it wasn’t until 2018, while pursuing my degree in Creative Writing, that I became very diligent about writing and producing and recording my own material. I spent a year and a half on a journey to create my first album, Blue Midnight, and that was one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. I'm now in the process of finishing up my first full-length novel and I can't wait to share that piece of myself with the world as well. This is something that’s been extremely satisfying and enjoyable for me, and something I hope to keep doing forever.
