Биография

Tyler Richardson has spent the last 13 years singing out front of the Tasmanian legends Luca Brasi. What started as a punk rock band, assembled for fun by good mates in the sleepy Tassie town of St.Helens, evolved into one of Australia's most-loved rock acts. Five full-length albums, hundreds of gigs and festival appearances have aided Luca Brasi in continuing to build a passionately loyal fanbase. Like all of us, Richardson found himself with time on his hands over the last couple of years, so in mid-2020, he and his good friend, Ben Stewart of Slowly Slowly decided to release a split 7" as a bit of fun. A song from each singer, they put it up on Bandcamp, and the response was insane; the 7" sold out within an hour. With that experience and, as the pandemic continued, even more time available, Richardson got a little more ambitious; "I made a promise to myself that I can write a solo record and actually finish it, I made that promise a while back" Once again, Tyler decided to enlist the help of Slowly Slowly's Ben Stewart "I'm beyond stoked to be doing this, working with Ben has been nothing short of amazing. We're old, old mates and he just seems to get me and what I was trying to do" Luca Brasi fans need not fret about the future of the band, as Richardson confirms "Brasi will always be my Number One, but feeling my way through this has been unreal. Doing this has done so much good for my songwriting (i hope it shows). I hope you enjoy it"
