TYSON NAYLOR

Canadian pianist, accordionist and keyboardist Tyson Naylor has toured extensively across Canada, the U.S. and Europe. His experience as an improvisor, his attention to detail and his versatility have allowed him to perform in very diverse musical settings. He’s played with the Warsaw Improviser’s Orchestra, Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, Turning Point Ensemble, and Wayne Horvitz’s Conducted Improv Ensemble. He has also performed with Destroyer, Frazey Ford, Dan Mangan, and Micatone.
Other current and past collaborators include Aram Bajakian (Lou Reed, Diana Krall), Christian Lillinger, Tobias Delius, Brad Henkel, Michael Griener, Samuel Hall, Axel Dörner, Mats Äleklint and Lina Allemano.
Tyson’s debut trio album was released in 2012 on Songlines Recordings, and was followed up by a tour of major Canadian and U.S. Jazz Festivals.
Naylor also composed the soundtrack to the films Lynnwood and Juken, and contributed to the soundtrack of feature film Hector and the Search For Happiness.
