Join us this Friday June 13th for a special show at Hytch (Sierra Water Gardens), where music, nature and aromatherapy meet.

✨ Singer-songwriter Tyler Stafford will be performing live from 7:00–9:00 PM,. His voice is as soothing and cool as a Lake Tahoe breeze. Set beneath the twinkling lights and garden charm of the grounds of Hych, formerly Sierra Water Gardens, this event promises to be a soul-satisfying evening under the stars.

🌼 While you’re there, stop by the Tahoe Sun table for a first look at our handcrafted after-sun mist…made with Aloe and bergamot for your sun-kissed skin. “Relaxation in a bottle..”

If you’re headed up to the lake for this show, make sure to get there early. I’ll be playing a short set to warm up the night. Not a bad gig for my first time on the stage in the South Shore Room! #johnhiatt #southlaketahoe #renotahoe #tylerstaffordmusic #nottooshabby

I’ve played so many mornings down at Liberty soothing hangovers and providing the vibes for families and friends grabbing brunch on the weekends. Also, many memorable nights playing the outdoor stage at the Great Basin Brewery in Sparks both solo and with my band for the various Summer events including Brewery Anniversaries and Rib Cookoff. Over all the years I’ve always felt the support from these businesses and the regular patrons and am so humbled by their decision to, not only donate to the fundraiser last week, but to have a day of donating a portion of sales to our family as well. If you’re planning to grab a bite out this Thursday, please consider supporting a local restaurant affiliated with either Great Basin Brewery or Liberty Food and Wine Exchange. Both offer great food and atmosphere and are committed to making an impact in our community. Thank you!

Wow!! The support keeps pouring in! SoL Cannabis has offered to donate 100% of the sales from tomorrow, Sunday, April 27th, to Tyler’s medical expense fundraising efforts. So incredibly generous! If you have a chance, leave a 5 star review on their Google page, it would really help support their local business. Thank you!!!

As exhausted as I am today physically and mentally, my spirit is filled to maximum capacity from the love and support my family and I experienced last night. The show and attendance blew all my expectations out of the water and I am so grateful and blessed to be a part of such an amazing community. I hope everyone had a blast and left with the same emotional high that radiated in the room all night like I did. Thank you to everyone that helped promote the show and to everyone that showed up. We raised over $15,000 from just over 300 wristbands sold and I can’t tell you how incredible that feels. I’m posting the poster board of donors here because I hope that you consider supporting all of these amazing local businesses that graciously, and without hesitation, donated to our raffle and silent auction. I’m so sorry that I didn’t get to personally thank each and every guest last night, but please know that your support and generosity means the world to us and I thank you for providing us with a sense of relief and breathing room for me to tackle this next phase of medical treatment. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU! 📸: @tonycontini

Sharing a little life update, so scroll through if you’re interested. One month ago today had a pretty significant health scare. Thankful to be feeling much better, but still a good way to go for me from here.

Coming back to the Best in the West Rib Cookoff this Thursday with the band and special guest @sedonamusic.official. Hope to see some friendly faces at one of our favorite stages in Sparks this week!

So much to be thankful for from this weekend. Gia, Kris, Eric and Dave put in so much work to make my songs come to life and (I’ll keep saying it) l couldn’t imagine having better friends/ bandmates to share the stage with. Ed Collins worked his ass off with the lighting and transformed the Wingfield Park stage into an artist’s dream. It’s never looked as stunning as it did last night and he did three days worth of work in half that time. Todd Rold worked his magic at the front of house position and made us sound like pros. Bryan Jones sounded great as always and was the perfect person to get the crowd warmed up. Ian Sorensen from 100.1 made for a great MC. Ashley Robison was unbelievable in how much she accomplished for anyone, let alone being 8 months pregnant. My parents and in laws and all of the friends and family that volunteered to make the night go so smoothly. My friends with the American Heart Association that had their restrooms delivered a day early so that we could share them on the same weekend as their event and only asked for a donation to their cause for payment. Kacee, Alexis, Larry and all the people with the City of Reno that helped guide me through the process of putting on the special event. 395 Craft Beer and Spirits and Jay Slater’s Ding-a-Wing are amazing and got so many compliments. Last and most importantly, everybody that bought a ticket to show, told a friend, bought some merch and/or just showed up to demonstrate their support for what I do, THANK YOU! Thank you for taking time out of your schedules and for making this event a priority. None of this happens without the support of family, friends and fans. Thank you for making my dreams a reality.

P.S. I’m already looking forward to the next one : )

Also Steve Larkins, @mason_frey_music and Ryan James McHarg for all the help!
