Tiffany Tyre
Lead Vocals: From the early age of seven Tiffany knew music was her passion and singing was her natural gift. Driven by her desire and her distinctly powerful and nuanced voice, she became a dedicated professional. Tiffany sang in various cover bands and soon formed a reverence band called IWR (Iconic Women Of Rock) which was a tribute to some of the greatest women in music like Ann Wilson from Heart and Pat Benatar. Tiffany believes music should be about how the emotion of the voice moves the listener. This is what drew her to Ann Wilson. “When I sing the music of Heart, I feel like I’m home… the music moves me like no other”. |
