Bad Tiger

Originally conceived in 2018, songwriter Y Lowy moved to San Francisco with the intention of starting a band. She began by composing songs for this imagined band, And wrote what would eventually become Bad Tiger’s debut album, “The Goat and the Bad Tiger” (2020), tracked and produced by Logan Stokes at Indie As studio in Albuquerque, NM. Following this release, Lowy met with Mackenzie Bunch at Coyote Hearing Studio to record and produce “Sanctuary” EP, the final release from Minneapolis-based Brace Cove Records, in 2022.

Simultaneous to the "Sanctuary" release, Lowy joined forces with Tyler Gholson, Jacob Sherfield, and David Garges, developing Bad Tiger into its original vision: a full band. It's with this full form that they began touring regionally, and returned to Bunch's studio as a unit to record their second full-length record, “Bliss,” released in 2024.

Following the release of “Bliss,” Gholson moved to Portland, OR, and Lowy self-produced and recorded the third Bad Tiger full-length, “Bean Hollow” (coming out 10/31/25) at Panoramic House, the famous Stinson Beach recording studio, with the close support of Sherfield, and mentorship and sound engineering of John Baccigaluppi of Tape Op Magazine. Shortly thereafter, Lowy moved to Portland, rejoining forces with Gholson and Matt Harris (Brace Cove Records) to continue to refine and explore the next chapter of continuing iterations of the indie band known as Bad Tiger.
