Tigerhead was born out of a desire to create something new and interesting for young audiences while at the same time stimulate and exercise the musicians involved. Tigerhead’s sound is based primarily upon pre-recorded samples, euphoric ambience and highly technical syncopation.

Tigerhead is based in Vancouver, B.C.
