BIO
Comfortable in a jaw dropping range of styles, Tanya has collaborated with a diverse and formidable roster of artists across the world. Growing up in the small but musically powerful town of Mullingar in Ireland, she crafted her skills playing with just about every band in the country that needed a bass line and was also a regular in house bands for many Irish TV shows.
Tanya made a mark for herself on the Irish music scene before spreading her wings further a field and touring worldwide and now basing herself in Los Angeles. While the Irish rhythm technician is entirely comfortable powering through propulsive rock tempos, her prismatic talents extend far beyond any single genre.
Regularly guesting on blues, funk and RnB projects with various bands, Tanya is also a go to session musician on the speed dials of many big named producers. Her inventive rhythms and fearless experimentalism along with a healthy dose of sarcasm and sense of humor to ‘beat the band’, makes for an all round unique artist.
To date Tanya has performed, recorded, toured, jammed and written with an incredibly diverse collection of artists, including: Maynard James Keenan (Tool/APC), Dee Snider (Twisted Sister), Steven Adler (Guns N’ Roses), Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Westlife, The Corrs, Michael Angelo Batio, Orianthi and shows such as The Riverdance and The Voice
