He has amassed over 1,000 students in all, with guitarists from Candlebox and the Flys among them. Further proof of his talent emerged when Tullock won 2nd place honors in a Hottest Guitar Player in Seattle contest when he was only 16. A gifted and prolific singer/songwriter, Tullock has worked with the Ohio Players and the Average White Band. His knowledge in engineering, remixing, and producing eventually led to a two-year stint as Audio Director for indie label Track Record.

As the four-member band Tyler, Tullock released Repression, his self-produced debut, in mid-2000. ~ Roxanne Blanford
