R&B on Tap: An Evening with Tyler Reese
Experience an evening of soulful music in a space built on grit and craft: a pioneering Berkeley brewery born from an old auto repair shop. We're trading the polished stage for a taproom where the buzz of connection will pair perfectly with the hum of fermentation tanks and the taste of award-winning beer.
This night centers Tyler Reese, the Oakland-based singer, songwriter, and audio engineer whose sound blends soul, R&B, and dance-ready house music. A resident artist at Studio X and a staple performer in the Bay Area’s vibrant music scene, Tyler creates music that is honest, emotional, and deeply personal. She champions a revolution of authenticity, where music makes people feel seen and understood—a philosophy that resonates perfectly with Gilman Brewing’s “good beer without the attitude” spirit.
This isn't just a concert; it’s a shared experience in a unique setting, designed to foster connection, celebrate local art, and remind us of music's power to unite. Expect a journey through deeply personal songwriting, powerful vocals, and grooves that draw from the rich history of R&B and soul.
