Tulip Tiger

Tulip Tiger’s Augustus Watkins is an infinite constant. And being so prolific has its advantages. When you’re always creating, you always have material.

On his debut as Tulip Tiger, Your Muse Follows Me, Watkins raided his motley vault and quite literally produced the future of electronic music. Watkins sophomore LP, Award Winning Redemption Arc, a bombastic collection of experimental electronic songs was written and produced during the pandemic lockdown using a meticulously maintained 1993 Mercedes-Benz 400-E to mix the new material in just two weeks’ time, parked on the street outside his Hollywood sublease.

Primarily inspired by big beat, film scores, hip hop, and top-40 along with occasional nods to Arabic music, jazz, and classic rock, Tulip Tiger is set apart from Watkins’ recent work (Bijou Noir, DEATHDANCE) mainly by its deliberate, freewheeling irreverence. You're likely to hear something you recognize. Nothing has been licensed. Call your lawyer.

Tulip Tiger’s brand-new full-length, Thrilling and Robust Vegan Theremin Solos From Beyond the Grave is available now.
