Bio

After an unknowable number of weeknight jams, Tyler Massey Quartet (TMQ) evolved organically, coalescing around a disaffected catalogue of songs written by Tyler Massey, a American musician who washed up on these shores 20 years ago (he did it all for love, of course).

Impressed by the natural bass and production skills of Worcester's Alex Knight, the two started working together and went on to make the EP American Nightmare together in 2017.

During the recording their next effort All The Pretty Lights (2019), they were permanently joined by another long-term musical ally, Eric Hej on percussion.

Defined by heavy dose of dark humour, the trio started playing almost constantly, clocking dozens of memorable, well-received performances in tiny spaces all over the West Midlands.

Here's Ben Willmott's review of All The Pretty Lights in God Is In The TV.

Happily, in 2023, the line-up was completed by versatile soloist Ralph Jackson on alto / tenor saxophones and flute. Armed with a new electric sound (full drum kit, jangly Fender guitar, fearsome bass lines and soaring sax parts) and propelled by a handful of unforgettable new songs, they found their sound.

Their first proper recording, captured live along with a live video is due out this summer on Off The Road Music.
