Experience
Vocalist, Guitarist
Oct, 2015 - PresentPOPWorld
POPWorld, featuring Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC was a relatively short-lived band that covered pop songs from the early 2000s and late 90s. We performed showcase events in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware and several shows on the Train: Sail Across the Sun cruise in 2016. In this band, I played lead guitar and sang high harmony vocals. We had a lot of fun - it was an honor to perform alongside Chris Kirkpatrick.

Jan, 2012 - PresentN I C E G H O S T
N I C E G H O S T is the stage name for my solo project. I perform and record rock/alternative music. I went simply by my own name for years, until I discovered that a different Tyler James had already signed a record deal in Nashville. Darn. I think my stage name is cooler, anyway.
