It_O by Tyler Barber
This album is dedicated to my dear, sweet, Penny Pen. I love you with all my heart.
This album was written in the first half of the COVID pandemic. I wanted to make music that put tension and anxiety at ease. Most tracks have no set tempo, parts weave in and out, like windshield wipers going in and out of sync with the radio. The result, I hope, is a sleepy album that is calm listening from beginning to end.
After I finished the songs for this album I suffered an intense mental health crisis. Learning of my OCD and subsequent treatment was followed by another tragic and devastating turn of events. My dearest, sweetest cat of 16 years was diagnosed with an inoperable tumor.
This year has been extremely difficult for everyone, and I hope that this album reflects a hopeful view. I certainly would not be able to write these songs today, but I'm happy to get them out.

I make ambient electronic and art pop for people who love atmospheric and bittersweet songs. I've been writing music for almost 30 years, and I don't plan to stop anytime soon. My goal is to produce an album a year. More than anything, I just want people to hear what I have to share.
