Ty has cultivated his skills as a musician, a teacher and a DJ for over 25 years. He offers a wide-range of professional music services and takes great pleasure in bringing musical joy to people's lives. 

Hailing from the Washington D.C./Baltimore, Maryland corridor, Ty Hussell has become proficient in a wide range of musical styles such as: Jazz, Blues, Rock, Pop, Reggae, Punk, Funk, R&B, Go-Go, Hip Hop, and Gospel, as well as various styles of popular and folkloric music of Afro-Brazilian/Latin/Caribbean origins. His instruments of choice include: piano/keyboards, guitar, bass guitar, drum set & percussion, two turntables and a mixer, as well as the modern DJ controller. 

As a lecturer at and alumni of Omega Recording Studios, he’s just as at home in the studio as a session musician, engineer, composer & arranger as he is on the bandstand as a live performer. With decades of extensive international travels & professional research, including popular & folkloric musical studies with master drummers in Cuba & Brazil, Jazz studies at UDC under Calvin Jones, and private studies and ongoing relationships with such luminaries as Bernard Purdie, Donny Osbourne, Mel Brown, and most notably Bobby Ward, Ty continues to pursue his love of diverse musical traditions. Ty’s professional playing experience includes drumming for Reggie Houston, drumming, arranging & performing with Son of Nun, and drumming/playing guitar with Miramar. 

As founding teacher for TYMO Arts, Ty has been a music educator & instructor for 20+ years. He creates and conducts highly-customized creative arts programs for a wide range of educational institutions. As a private instructor, Ty caters his instruction to suit the individual needs and desires of his students. His teaching experience includes positions at Levine School of Music (DC), Howard and Prince George’s County school systems (MD), City of Tucson’s Parks and Recreation Department (AZ), and Sitar Arts Center (DC). 

As a DJ and an industry professional, Ty has been electrifying the airwaves on DC's WPFW, burning up dance floors at clubs & festivals, and providing impeccable, individually-crafted musical experiences for both public and private events for 25+ years. With equal attention given to the big picture and to the finest of details, he lovingly curates highly-personalized musical montages to perfectly suit each and every unique occasion.
