Rhys Tivey grew up on a small horse farm in rural upstate New York to visual artists
Hap and Liza Tivey. As a teenage trumpeter, he played jazz and orchestral music,
performing in Carnegie Hall, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic.
After graduating from NYU for jazz trumpet, he dove into developing his sound as a
vocalist, songwriter, and producer, taking inspiration from earlier days of musical
influence (an eclectic mix of Phil Collins, Jim Morrison, David Bowie, Tom Waits, Joni
Mitchell, A Tribe Called Quest, and Miles Davis), while incorporating jazz and
symphonic elements absorbed during his trumpet studies.
After several years of performing in LA and NYC and recording original songs with Mike
Haldeman (Moses Sumney), Carter Lee (The Marias), Dillon Treacy, Jessie Bielenberg
(Kandace Springs, Kiah Victoria), grammy nominated engineer Mike Tierney, and
mastering engineer Alex DeTurk (D'Angelo, David Bowie), Rhys will be releasing his
debut album Unsteady in the spring of 2020.
