Sounds like Sara Barielles and John Mayer
Tastes like Jäger spilled on ivory
Looks like a Purple piano in 4 inch heels
Smells like fresh baked cookies
Feels like a bathtub of aloe vera gel
Makes Ewoks dance and flowers sway to the groove

Tiff was born in Denver, Colorado on a freezing cold day. She immediately looked up and said, “Screw this, where’s the beach?” She spent her formative years in San Diego, California. Her talent for singing was discovered at an early age. Her mother would play the piano while a four- year old Tiff would sing along, making up her own songs to go with the music. Songwriting also began at an early age for this talented artist and has blossomed into one of Tiff’s most accomplished strengths. Like many other children Tiff was forced to take piano lessons at a young age. However, this hobby quickly grew into an obsession for her. Her fingers have yet to leave her beloved instrument. Just before graduating from high school Tiff released her first self- produced album of original songs, Never Takes Too Much. Already at the young age of seventeen, it was clear that the passion ran deep for this gifted artist and her potential was quickly realized. Upon completion of high school Tiff was accepted to the prestigious Berklee College of Music where she was rewarded a scholarship. She spent the next four years in Boston completely immersed in the music culture. In addition to producing and engineering she tested her songwriting talents by writing in many genres including country, classical, rock, pop, jingles, commercials, and movies.
After graduating with a dual degree in Songwriting and Music Production/Engineering Tiff moved to Los Angeles. Since moving to Los Angeles after school, Tiff has engineered and assisted on many projects and played in several bands. She worked at Whisky A Go Go; Conway Studios; and 5.1 Surround Sound.
Tiff is on a national tour, playing over 200 shows a year. On her tour she will be stopping at every Jack in the Box she sees and ordering seasoned curly fries. A large…seasoned…curly. When she’s not on tour she lives in a garage…try not to be jealous.
