Tyrone Rotunno
Tyrone Edward Rotunno, born June 25th, 1967, is an American artist, multi- instrumentalist, songwriter, and music producer from Los Angeles, California. His latest single Ring Out was released January 2021. Owing to the pandemic lockdown in early 2020, Rotunno began remote collaborations with pianist/multi-instrumentalist Jaime Luis Oliveira from Lisbon, Portugal. After hearing the song Devil Jumped High, from Rotunno’s 2011 release, “Tyrone & The Golden Boys” Oliveira reached out and contacted Rotunno. Upon hearing Olivera playing piano live on Zoom, Rotunno invited Olivera to collaborate on the single Red Gold Evening, which he was creating in honor of his wife’s birthday. During the 80’s and 90’s he worked predominately as a drummer using the name Ty Rio, short for Tyrone Rio, on earlier works as a songwriter and founder of the Indie rock band Splendor Head album "Mirth" 1988, and tracks (1,3,5,8 and 10) on the The Droogs (L.A.) “Guerilla Love-In” LP featuring Carla Olsen , released 1991.
