I specialize in the convergence of music and human mysteries; the mystical and the real. My skills include voice, keyboard, and woodwinds, such as the clarinet, flute, and oboe. My goals for my work is to be as authentic as possible when assembling the instruments, language, and music styles. My influences include rock'n'roll, pop, folk, americana, reggaeton, latin pop, Hákveða, choral music, etc.

In today's world, people are able to connect more easily than ever before. With the internet, groups can join together under a common interest, and I think the experience I'm creating is a platform where many can meet, connect, share stories, and make lasting relationships.
I would like the opportunity to speak more with you. Would you be available for a meeting?
I look forward to your response.
Respectfully,
Tyler Kaufman
