“Pop as pop ought to be”. (Heaven music magazine)

What can you say about a guy who writes, composes, sings, produces and plays each and every sound on his records? Beautiful pop songs, varied as the rainbow but with a steady heartbeat. Both instantly recognizable and surprisingly subtle; at other times like a sturdy blow to body and mind.

Besides being called a song wizard and possessing a charismatic stage presence, he’s a man of wisdom. Who has learned to live by the maxim “music is fun”?
His name is Tiedo. Enjoy!
