Tatiana Lyne was born into a big Irish musical family in Beverly Farms, MA. Her extended family still gathers to sing the family songs from Ireland to this day. Her mom who was the dancer of the family exposed her to everything from Patsy Cline to Amy Winehouse, to Janet Jackson. The house was filled with dancing, and instruments and kids. She grew up next to her grandmother, a former art teacher and creative champion who encouraged her to think for herself. At a young age she felt captivated by music and lyrics. She started writing her own songs almost as early as she started writing in general. It was one of her favorite activities on playdates to make up a song and dance. In the 5th grade Tatiana received the role of Josephine in her school play, H.M.S Pinafore, which ignited her love for the stage.
When she was 13 she picked up a guitar for the first time and loved how the music made her lyrics come to life. She was especially enchanted by the romantic lyrics of Taylor Swift, Jewel, and Jack Johnson in those early days. She loved being able to express her heart and mind through song. Songwriting quickly became a daily ritual and a place for healing when she needed it most. By the time Tatiana was 16 she started performing her original music at benefit concerts, farmers markets and talent shows. Soon after her first performances, she formed an acoustic band with Misha Berkrot and John Houston called 24 Strings. Together they performed through their high school years and won a battle of the bands. She had many impactful musical mentors during these high school years including Berklee musicians Steven Seydler + Will Faust, MERHS music teacher Donna O'Neill who awarded her the outstanding musicianship award, and Livingston Taylor. Towards the end of her high school experience, the most important person in her life, her mom, was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. This shattered her world and sent her on a seeker’s journey. She became more dependent on her music for relief from the pain. She would sneak out of the cafeteria for a “therapy session” with her guitar in the music room. By the time she graduated, she was given a miracle; her mom went into remission. However, another disease, the disease of addiction, had taken it’s place. She started drinking to cope after finding out her mom was sick.
At Stetson University she continued to find success in songwriting + performing. She won talent competitions for her songs, performed original music on and off campus at paid gigs, and was given a scholarship to dance with the Cheer team as the school Mascot. She loved how when performing around town the crowd would sing the lyrics back to her at the local bars + campus events. She collaborated with many peers at Stetson, including Cape Wave Records, and Kyle Ritch of Ritch Records. During these busy college years, she wrote compulsively. Her songs from this era were defined by an adventurous lifestyle including multiple trips to study abroad, her fascination with studying philosophy, and the life-changing inner journey to sobriety. Her senior year on 10/12/14 she found sobriety, which not only saved her life but connected her to her most authentic voice. In 2015, she continued to chase music in Florida where she met rising musicians who would go on to become household names.
In the Summer of 2015, Tatiana moved back home to Massachusetts instead of moving to Nashville as planned. A huge part of this was deciding to put her sobriety first. From 2016-2017, Tatiana worked on a soulfully inspired electronic music project with DJ/Producer Alexander Padei. These songs were heavily influenced by early recovery and mental health themes. In this time, she recorded 2 music videos, released several songs, and performed in the Boston area at venues such as The Top of the Hub, the Hasty Pudding Club and the Provincetown II. They hosted an EP release party at The Middle East.
In 2018, Tatiana tapped into her indie singer-songwriter roots and went solo again. She shared her vulnerable outlaw country originals at Loretta's Last Call, Cape Ann Brewing Company, Breaking Grounds Cafe and The Indo Pub. Her song “Denim Skirt” made it on to the local radio station North Shore 104.9. Soon after she released a couple of new acoustic songs including “Young, Dumb, and Numb”. She took these country songs to the Martha's Vineyard Songwriting Festival where Byron Hill compared her unfiltered lyrics to Margo Price. In 2018, she started collaborating with rapper/songwriter/producer Trotter Mac of Seasick Productions. They released “Scared of You” in November of 2018.
From 2019 until 2024, Tatiana decided to bring the power of music to Addiction and Mental Health Treatment centers inspired by her own sobriety journey. From 2019-2022, Tatiana shared her live acoustic therapy groups with patients in detox at Recovery Centers of America in Danvers. This quickly became her favorite audience as she related so deeply to the fight to recover from substance use. One patient impacted by her music group wrote, “Having the privilege of playing songs with Tatiana singing helped me get through the worst parts and put me in a state of grace.” Another patient wrote, “Tatiana has the voice of an angel and the personality of sunshine. She makes me feel welcome when it's hard to sometimes.” When Tatiana finally moved to Nashville in 2022, she brought her music therapy groups to Vanderbilt's Psychiatric Hospital and hosted a weekly “school of rock talent show” for the teens working on their mental health in the Vanderbilt Adolescent PHP. In 2025, Tatiana still enjoys songwriting and enjoys playing music with her guitarist husband John and her two rescue dogs in Nashville.
