BOSTON, MA - For the last 5 years, Brendan Wright has spent a hell of a lot of time realizing their passion project Tiberius, recording and performing in basements, warehouses, bedrooms, and from time to time, in their car. Cacophonous and catchy, Wright’s recordings blend indie punk, alt country and psychedelia. While conversational, yet confessional songwriting may not be a style particularly new across the modern DIYsphere’ - Wright hopes their efforts to be genuine.
“I’m constantly afraid of being found out, so whenever I can, I just try to write honestly. I’m really flawed. My music is really flawed. I'd rather it just be what it is, than try to make it something that it’s not”.
In the live ‘rock show format,’ Wright leans on collaborators Kelven “KP” Polite (bass) and Sam Blumenstile (drums), to bring their journalistic blend of farm emo to life. In 2024, the band called on Pat King (pedal steel), and Harley Spring (guitar) to help broaden the band’s already diverse catalog. From the angry to the ambient, the Tiberius live show offers intensity and heart, with an even warmer and rustic flair than before.
Tiberius pulls from a broad range of influences including the likes of The Flaming Lips, Car Seat Headrest, Arthur Verocai, Sleater Kinney, and Courtney Barnett among countless others.

"The sound of bouncy depression...
It's that good, emo-adjacent garage music
that reminds you to feel alive..."

"[Tiberius] bursts with energy from the gate, combining hypnotic melodies with earworm-inducing, poetic lyricism..."
"a result of diving into the unknown and rolling with the punches.
...the morning after a drunken night, not in the sense where it’s all a blur but one finds clarity in the unknown
Lull is a promise of life to come—not so much what (or how) life will be once this is all over, but rather a hopeful and vibrant guarantee that we will live.
Walking a fine line between midwest emo and lush indie rock, the collection of songs on Lull prattle on in the most charming and abstract way."
"moody drones to ecstatic, scream-your-lungs-out choruses...Tiberius remind us in the absence of social interaction and the lull of life that the light at the end of the tunnel is a house show"
"Everyone can relate to this album."
"...an upbeat jam with not-as-upbeat lyrics that is sure to be relatable to young adults navigating the uncertainty of life, all while reckoning with the broader uncertainties in society as a whole.."
