SEEKING
Background Singer, Lead Guitar.ABOUT
I'm Tyler Brett Forkes, a Kingston, Ontario-based singer / songwriter. I perform regularly around the area, and in occasional festivals in Toronto, where I've opened for some Juno Award-winning songwriters. I do a single acoustic show of mostly original songs (see influences below) and select covers in an Americana style. Shows are a laid back vibe with good audience rapport.

While I don't have much opportunity to play blues harp these days, when I do I use an Astatic bullet mic, and a Peavey amp.
