Hailing from the vibrant Canadian West, Tyler Martens, widely known as Stickybuds, boasts over two decades of global touring and music excellence.

With a repertoire exceeding 70 label releases and numerous DJ mixes, Stickybuds has woven a sonic tapestry that resonates worldwide. His music has left an indelible mark, featured in blockbuster franchises like Spider-Man and Star Wars, while concurrently blasting out the sound systems of underground scenes and massive festivals.

A fixture at Canada's Shambhala Music Festival for 20 years, Stickybuds has perfected a unique DJ style, blending genres with live turntablism and impeccable selections. His annual Shambhala mixes showcase a fusion of funk, reggae, drum n’ bass, house and broken beats, adorned with exclusive acapellas, his own productions, and custom VIPs.

In 2025, Tyler is embracing his role as a dedicated father and husband, choosing family life over the grind of month-long tours and relentless release schedules. Bedtime stories and raising his young children now take priority, though he still enjoys performing at select festivals and special shows.

Music from the sickening dread realms of consciousness.

Formed in 2013 and born of the Leeds party scene, members of the Quake soundsystem joined forces with local musicians to create a seamless fusion between live heavy funk and hip hop/funk/soul samples. Years of experience in the underground music scene has forged an ensemble that encapsulates the spectacle of a live 5-piece band and the grooves of a live DJ.  A Man About a Dog have proven their sound pedigree and continue to enliven the Leeds live music scene. For a genuinely fresh, innovative and get-out-of-your-chair-and-DANCE mash up of all things funky, look no further. Isn’t it time you went to see “A Man About a Dog”?
