Tiwayo[edit]

Tiwayo is a singer songwriter based in Paris, France.

Biography[edit]

2017 - 2020 : Debuts[edit]

In 2017 he collaborated with American producer Mark Neill to create his first album, recorded in Neill s own Soil Of The South studio in Valdosta, Georgia, USA. Together, they recorded 13 songs with local musicians, presenting a journey through Tiwayo's musical inspirations which are deeply rooted in the Blues, Southern Soul and the music of Jamaica.


On Tiwayo’s return to France, the recordings were mixed by sound engineer and producer Philippe Weiss at Philippe Zdar Motorbass Studios in Paris.

This debut album, “The Gypsy Soul of Tiwayo”, was released by Blue Note (France) in 2019, and received critical acclaim, which in turn offered Tiwayo the chance to tour with and open for Blue Note headline artists Norah Jones, Gregory Porter and Marcus Miller.

The album was also supported by a tour in Europe, including Germany, U.K and Switzerland.

In 2021, prior to ending the tour at La Cigale in Paris, Tiwayo released a single, "Baby Don't You Worry “, featuring soul singer Ty Taylor (from the group Vintage Trouble).


2023 - ...[edit]

When the Covid pandemic struck Europe, Tiwayo began working on a second album in his home studio, which satisfied his long held desire to produce himself.

"Desert Dream" was the result of this effort; an intimate 10 track album, conceived like a road-movie which, via Tiwayo's sensitive voice, unfolds through soulful and cinematic compositions, revealing his skill as a story teller and crafter of melody.

To create Desert Dream’s spacious climate and vibe, Tiwayo recorded all the music in the attic of his house, staggering languid slide guitar parts over simply strummed acoustics, while progressively adding the rest of the arrangement. Nearly all of the album is unedited and most tracks are first takes to maintain a loose and raw feel.

"Desert Dream" was released in May 2023 on the French independent label Yotanka records. This album, like the debut, was well received by critics and was followed by a Tiwayo tour of Europe backed by his 4-piece band, as well as openings as a solo act for the American blues artist Robert Cray.
