Soft-spoken and instantly likable, singer-songwriter Tyler Stafford has become a fixture on the Northern Nevada music scene, his acoustic guitar supporting his big tenor voice plaintively singing original folk and pop compositions with simple, honest lyrics and enduring hooks.  A home-grown talent, the 28 year old has played some of the biggest stages that Reno has to offer and has cultivated a loyal following that can’t get enough of his dynamic performances. His songs often draw comparisons to songwriters such as John Mayer and James Taylor delivered with a candor reminiscent of early Dave Matthews. The release of his first studio album “On a String,” to a crowd of 400 at the Hawkin’s Amphitheater in the Fall of 2011, a spot on the list of the Reno Gazette Journal’s Top Albums of 2011, and an invitation to play at the annual Americana Music Festival in Virginia City in the Summer of 2012 highlight some of the songwriter’s most recent accomplishments.  Less
