Born in the foggy province of Newfoundland Canada, TallBoy (aka Timothy Vickers) has been creating music in the San Francisco Bay Area for the past 10 years. He can be found producing for artists under the name Grandbankss - likeMichael Sneed’s “Reinvent”, Sofya Wang’s “Found Love”, ZOLA’s “Crystal Floors” and Elujay’s “Champagne Galore” - and often playing live Jazz with his friends at the bar around the corner from the studio he works out of. However, despite his wide range of multi-label releases for various artists, Vickers’ roots have always been in electronic music. A somewhat introverted personality, Vickers always been steadily and quietly making his own version of dance music in the background.

New project TallBoy is a public outlet of self expression for someone who has devoted their life to creating behind the scenes. Inspired by electronic musicians Four tet, The Books, and Burial, TallBoy’s self-titled EP was produced as a stream of thought in his living room, as pictured in the cover art. The dance EP finds TallBoy sampling himself, the atmospheric sounds outside his apartment, as well as longtime friend and collaborator ZOLA. Coming as a surprise from a producer who has seemingly produced for artists in every genre, new project TallBoy and the self-made stop-motion music video display yet another side of the multi-talented Vickers that (somehow) we had yet to see.
