TYLER DEL PINO/FONTINE/KILUSAN

Tyler Del Pino, has a pure passion for songwriting and an honest sound infused with starry-eyed themes. a hybrid of alt-country, Americana, and East Coast folk-rock while staying true to the roots of timeless tunes.

 

FONTINE crafts sanguine lyrics that tell of loves past and present. often using themes of nature to ground her songwriting. Her identity as a Nehiyaw Iskwew goes back to early memories of visiting the family farm on Cowessess First Nation reserve. Through songwriting, beading, and exploring the natural world, FONTINE is working to uncover the roots buried for years, and become a part of a wider community of songwriters.
