It was our first time seeing The Lao Tizer Band in concert but we are big fans of Elliott Yamin
so we knew if was going to be great! Each band member were amazing talented! Highly recommend going to see them. Can't wait until they come back to NYC so we can bring a bunch of friends.

The Lao Tizer Band Biography
If Colorado-bred, L.A.-based keyboardist Lao Tizer embodies the boundaryless modern
musician, he comes by it honestly. As the self-described “child of East Coast Jewish hippies”,
his parents’ wide-ranging musical tastes influenced him from an early age, steeping his ears in
classical, rock, soul, and world music. But it wasn’t until the age of 16 that hearing Miles Davis’s
Kind of Blue and Miles & Quincy Live at Montreux turned the budding pianist toward a new and
lasting musical fascination–jazz.
Inspired, Tizer applied his classical piano skills to jazz and quickly released his first selfproduced
solo albums while still in high school. After graduating, Tizer moved to L.A. and
studied with legendary piano guru Terry Trotter for about two years, forgoing formal music
education.
Through a combination of Trotter and, as Tizer calls it, “getting my ass kicked on the
bandstand,” the keyboardist learned quickly, forming The Lao Tizer Band in short order. The
LTB has gone on to produce six well-received albums while attracting an impressive roster of Alist
players to its ranks, performing around the world to a growing fanbase.
Most recently, Tizer took a bold leap into crossover territory with 2018’s acclaimed Songs From
The Swinghouse, with a mix of re-envisioned vocal covers and trademark instrumental
sophistication.
Now, Tizer and company’s forthcoming release, AMPLIFY, ups the ante with the addition of
platinum-certified, American Idol vocal phenom Elliott Yamin to the band. With an intoxicating
blend of soulful original songs and infectious, groove-laden instrumentals, Amplify is poised to
appeal to an even wider audience–and open up a whole lot of ears
