After one listen to Tion Phipps, it’s obvious he is a league ahead of the typical teen with sights set on superstardom. Tion is a seasoned performer, determined to grab hold of the entertainment industry with a fresh sound that blends the fun style pop music and the musical maturity of R&B. With a killer smile, a diverse cultural background and all-American good boy looks, this singer, dancer and songwriter is turning heads. To Tion, music is second nature, “I do what the beat tells me.”

Tion has been following the beat starting from his days as a small town boy living in Madisonville, Kentucky. Raised by a single mother, Tion’s musical ear would develop by belting out notes to unexpected influences like Ray Charles, The Righteous Brothers, and even country icons like Garth Brooks. Tion caught the addiction for singing when he sang along to the classic pop tune “Rockin’ Robin” by the Jackson 5. “That’s when I first got a voice,” remembers Tion. “My mom said, ‘Is that you singing or is that Michael?’ I said, ‘That’s me singing!’ From there, I wanted to be a singer.” Tion was only nine years old.

While Tion is inspired by old school legends, don’t let his musical maturity deceive you. He’s still young at heart, obsessed with skateboarding and hanging out with friends while jamming out to R&B favorites like Omarion or newer artists like Drake. Tion is not your average teen dream. A natural talent and unlike many stars of today, he wasn’t plucked from a reality show. Similar to Justin Timberlake and Usher, the Southern boy has been paying his dues on stage for years. He is a down-home, country kid with aspirations that are morphing into reality. “Anytime I pray, my ultimate goal is to be a legend among the legends. I want to make a great show,” says Tion. “I want to make them remember it!” After one look, one listen, or one performance, Tion is absolutely unforgettable.
