Eugene Tyler Band is an indie-bluegrass power trio that punches far above its weight, cutting their teeth on the bluegrass festival circuit and clubs across the northeast. ETB has carved out a unique voice in the bluegrass scene, with cutting, often humorous songs, and a fast & loose approach that calls back to influences like the Clash and Drive-By Truckers. Eugene Gardner (vocals/guitar/mandolin/tenor guitar), Danny Tyler (banjo/guitar) and Marc Jaffee (upright bass/vocals) all grew up within a few miles of each other in New York’s Hudson Valley, where they are currently based.

Written over one week in the mountains of Vermont, their new album “Ride the Bike” is a culmination of years shared on the road, both on and off-stage. With a blend of indie spirit and bluegrass grit, the band’s tight musicianship is evident throughout the record, but songwriting is where ETB sets themselves apart. 

Sharing stages with bands like East Nash Grass, Mountain Grass Unit, Sicard Hollow, and The Kitchen Dwellers, ETB is back on the road this spring, bringing their charismatic brand of new acoustic music to audiences around the country.
