Tolliver

Chicago bred, LA-based Tolliver is the shimmering sequin-loving son of a cowboy-obsessed pastor and a gospel choir singer. Growing up immersed in the church, Tolliver witnessed his father’s death at 11 years old and life shifted. Spending over a decade living in the shadow of worrying that his father would condemn his lifestyle - a broke, gay, super-hot musician - Tolliver reconnected with his brother and learned of his father’s own faults and promiscuties. Cue the birth of the Daddyland EP, a letter to his father from the void, to their relationship and the self Tolliver has grown to be. Recorded at a home studio in Glendale, CA with the help of producer Jake Bowman (Kendrick Lamar, Ryan Beatty, Burna Boy), Teddy Roxpin (drums and percussion) and Todd Simon (trumpet), Daddyland is a vibrant, sassy, challenge to appreciate and love your imperfections. The Daddyland (Deluxe) EP featuring "Say What!" and "Death Back To Birth" is out now via SideOneDummy.
