Singer/Songwriter Tyrone Wells continues to win over fans across the nation with his powerful voice, heartfelt songs and engaging live shows. The Spokane, WA native began to hone his songwriting craft after moving to southern California, performing in coffee shops and building a fan base one convert at a time. In 2006, Wells independently released Hold On and major label Universal Republic came calling, re-releasing Hold On to a larger audience.
Wells’ second major label release, 2009’s Remain, took Tyrone to London to “open up the process” and work with producer Martin Terefe (Jason Mraz, KT Tunstall, James Morrison) and co-write with Iain Archer (UK indie artist and Snow Patrol co-writer). Other contributors to Remain included Matt Scannell (Vertical Horizon) and Tim Myers (OneRepublic.) The album debuted at #17 on the Billboard Heatseeker’s Chart, with the first single “More” seeing significant Triple A radio play. Follow-up singles “Sink or Swim” and “This Is Beautiful” reached #1 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart.

The 2010 independently released EP, Metal & Wood, saw Wells return to his acoustic, singer/songwriter roots. The album spent nearly three weeks at #1 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter album chart, with the track “Running Around In My Dreams” topping the song chart.

Tyrone is currently touring extensively and working on his new album, due out in late 2011.

After our interview with Tyrone Wells we’ll be up to all of our usual fun including beer tasting, sports and food during “Brewskis” Beer Tasting sponsored by DrinksWinesSpirits.com, Taylor’s segment of T-Bones Timeout, and Chris’ CLiv’s Real Estate Report.

This week on “Brewskis” Beer Tasting sponsored by DrinksWinesSpirits, we are tasting Fordham Tavern Ale From Dover, DE. based Fordham Brewing Co.
