Tyler Bullock

Tyler Bullock II is a pianist and composer from Nashville, Tennessee. Since moving to New York City to attend the Juilliard School in 2021, Tyler is already establishing himself on the jazz scene, having worked with Sean Jones, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Bruce Williams, Herlin Riley, Willie Jones III, Sherman Irby, Ulysses Owens Jr., Curtis Lundy, and The Roy Hargrove Big Band. He has been the regular pianist with the Roy Hargrove Big Band since 2022, and he recently recorded with Sean Jones for an upcoming album.

Tyler regularly leads his own band in venues around New York City and abroad. While his trio serves as the foundation for most of Tyler’s performances, he frequently collaborates with horn players and vocalists to bring into fruition the full range of color that he hears while writing his original compositions. Intending to combine the lineage of jazz with his own fresh perspective, Tyler weaves powerful musical narratives in his compositions that serve as a framework for his group to unleash their creativity.
