TIGHTROPE

Tristan Williams—also known by his producer alias, T.B. On The Beat—doesn’t follow the industry. He ran from it with both middle fingers raised. Heartbroken, broke, and barely holding on, he started building songs the only way he knew how: messy, loud, full of soul. What began as therapy in a dark room turned into a body of work that spans the raw country ache of Life in a Small Town and Golden Years, the cinematic dream-pop haze of Sunshine & Rainbows I, and the ambient confessions of Purity Culture I & II.

He got tired of the same old crap—sterile mixing, lifeless masters, paint-by-numbers pop songs with no blood in them. So he burned the blueprint. His mixes are flawed on purpose. His sound is grief, nostalgia, and growth—warped like an old VHS tape, but still warm to the touch. Every chord has a scar. Every lyric’s been lived.

Tristan doesn’t chase perfection—he chases feeling. His production is built for people who want something real again.

He doesn’t just make music. He makes what saved him.
And now he’s giving it back—with no apologies.
