In September 2014 Budweiser released their "Friends Are Waiting" commercial campaign featuring me singing my song When You Come Home.Now here are a few things about my music career that I should probably share in a music bio: When I’m not in my studio writing songs and cutting records, or on the road playing shows, I’m usually tending to our backyard chickens, eating fresh veggies from my wife’s huge garden, or out doing one of my many outdoor hobbies. Music is my trade & performing it for people is my passion. I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, MI, and moved to Minneapolis when I was 18 to study music, and I stayed because I’m one of those crazy people that enjoys the snow and cold weather. I’m a whiskey & beer drinking, fishing & hunting loving, motorcycle riding, quality food eating, hippie sympathizing, people loving, husband & father who lives in Minneapolis and shares a life with my amazing wife and adorable son. Released two major label albums with Universal Republic Records Metal & Wood: #1 iTunes Singer Songwriter album This Love: #2 iTunes Singer Songwriter album Where We Meet: #1 iTunes Singer Songwriter album and Top Ten iTunes overall Roll With It: #6 Billboard Heatseekers Albums Debut Over 75 placements in film/tv including “American Idol,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Odd Life of Timothy Green,” “Something Borrowed,” “Vampire Diaries,” “One Tree Hill,” “Private Practice,” and more. He knows it would be impossible without you.Ī couple stat lines that my managers think might impress you: He can’t believe you’re still reading this… if you are still reading this, he wants to thank you for taking the time to do so, and for supporting what he does. He feels certain that he will make music until his dying day, as it is not only gratifying for him to create, but also therapeutic and necessary. He has never really experienced much radio success, so his fans have been gained the old fashioned way, by pouring his heart out on a stage, and by word of mouth. He has spent time away from his beloved family to make this thing a reality. He jokes around, but he has worked very hard at making music his “job." He has spent countless hours writing, recording, playing live, and traveling to play live again. He knows that this bio has a ring of sarcasm, but he is dead serious. He’s referring to himself in the third person. He has four sisters, so he feels right at home being completely outnumbered by the ladies in his present household (and also when he was the lead of the ladies dept at TJ Maxx). He is a husband, and a father of 3 daughters. As far as jobs go, Tyrone feels like he has won the lottery (in regards to his present “job”). Tyrone Wells still sort of chuckles to himself when he thinks about the fact that making music is his “job." He has been at this “job" for well over a decade, and is just now beginning to shake off the discomfort and stress of the days when he had a real job (TJ Maxx - lead of the ladies department in Spokane, WA).
