biographical info
Tyson was born in Toronto, Canada on December 14th, and comes from a family with a strong musical and artistic background; pianists, guitarists, flamenco & belly dancers, painters, and even a silversmith. Tyson even toured with his Uncle’s band, Ritmo Flamenco, where he immersed himself into the more exotic sounds of the world.
From heavy metal to classical, from experimental to ambient, from old world to new age – no style is unknown nor unappreciated with Tyson… Here is a man who can see & hear the beauty in everything, and this wide-ranging appreciation is evident when you hear his music.
His journey is only beginning… Once you hear his music, you can’t help but surrender yourself to it… Seeing Tyson Emanuel playing his guitar is not something you experience everyday, and is not an experience you’ll likely forget… From the speed of his playing - watching his fingers fly up & down the neck of his guitar to all of the raw emotion - the love and the pain, will leave a mark on you, and you will feel enriched by it.
Tyson has currently released his debut album "December's Sun" which features 14 tracks fusing elements of; Middle Eastern, Flamenco, Mediterranean, Cinematic, Classical, Jazz, Afro-Cuban, New Age...
