We had the pleasure of interviewing Tyson Motsenbocker over Zoom video.

Where do dreams go when you become an adult? Well, they don’t disappear or dissolve into the ether. Those dreams simply change with you. However, it doesn’t mean you can’t still grasp the way they made you feel. As such, we treasure memories by recalling them and sharing them as often as possible. Tyson Motsenbocker preserves those youthful memories in his music, etching them into the fabric of the songs. The Washington-born and California based singer and songwriter encases them in lithe melodies, upbeat soundscapes, and ponderous lyrics.
After generating tens of millions of streams and cultivating a devout fan base, he examines the jump from childhood to adulthood – or maybe just the space between the two – on his third full-length offering, Milk Teeth [Tooth & Nail].
Tyson has consistently tuned into such emotions with relatability and vulnerability. Following his 2016 debut LP Letters to Lost Loves, he spent as much time as possible on the road, performing countless shows and captivating audiences across America and beyond. However, he connected deeply on 2020’s Someday I’ll Make It All Up To You. Meanwhile, “Autumn Love” was generating two and a half million Spotify streams. The followup single “Sunday Morning” followed close behind with nearly two million Spotify streams.
Just a handful of shows into what was booked to be a two year touring schedule, Covid 19 shut all touring down. Motsenbocker and his band headed home, where a period of reflection ensued, setting the foundation for what would become Milk Teeth.
Tyson hit the studio in Orange County, California with producer Nathan Cimino, drummer James McCalister, bassist Patrick Dodd and keyboardist Matthew Wright. Thematically reflected in the title (another name for “baby teeth”), the music struck a sweet spot akin to the “summer after you graduate from high school where you’re walking the line between the confusion and excitement of childhood and the gravity of being an adult.”
In the end, Tyson is an adult, and it ain’t so bad. In fact, it sounds beautiful on Milk Teeth.
