Tyler Nakoa

Tyler Nakoa is an independent singer songwriter, surfer, climber and environmental Educator, from the small town of Bellingen, NSW. 

Having spent most of the last decade on the road, his songs tell tales of a path less travelled, from the wilds of the backcountry to the simple day to day; he speaks a truth in a similar way to Dylan, Joe Pug, Ben Howard.

Tyler’s music is an atmospheric blend of alternative and folk, with haunting harmonies, soaring rhythms, strings and potent lyrics. Creating music that is the heart of the story, honest yet fearless in his vulnerability.

Over the last 7 years Tyler Nakoa has been busking and playing small venues on the east coast of Australia and in Canada. Tyler recorded his first album “Throw Your Stone” in Bellingen, released in 2017; and followed it with an East coast tour including festival appearances. Having spend the subsequent years writing and travelling Tyler broke the silence in June with "Island" the first single from an upcoming EP which is due to be released later in 2020. Island has has shown the new direction that Tyler is taking his music and it has fans quite excited for what this up and coming artist will offer in the future.
