A dream. 2 years in the making.
“Shooting Stars is everything to me. It’s been my dream project for the last two years and words cannot express just how excited I am to see this come to life, finally.”
– Tyson “tyDi” Illingworth

It’s musically diverse and truly shows what I love the most about music – powerful songwriting and exceptional studio production.”
