Jayson Tipp is a keyboardist, composer, and producer who has been making music for over 30 years. He is the founder and leader of Under The Lake, a contemporary jazz band that has released six albums and performed with many renowned jazz artists. He is also a solo artist who has released three singles and an album in 2023. Tipp started playing music at a young age, learning guitar, organ, trumpet, and trombone. He later switched to keyboards and played rock and fusion in college. He moved to San Diego in 1992 and formed Under The Lake as an outlet for his original compositions. His influences ranged from Bob James, Pat Metheny, Chick Corea, Jeff Lorber, and The Crusaders to Steely Dan and Traffic, resulting in an eclectic style he called "rough jazz". Under The Lake gained radio airplay and positive reviews for their first two albums, Dive In (1993) and Up For Air (1996). They also toured extensively in the 90s, sharing the stage with jazz legends such as Joe Sample, Billy Cobham, Keiko Matsui, and Stanley Jordan. They appeared at various venues and festivals, such as the PDX Jazz Festival, Cathedral Park Jazz Festival, Maui Music Festival, Newport Beach Jazz Festival, KIFM Smooth Jazz Festival, the Coach House, and the House of Blues.
Tipp faced challenges in balancing his music career and family life. He also pursued a different career outside of music. The band went on a hiatus and did not release another album until 2007, when they celebrated Tipp's 40th birthday with People Together. The album name reflected the reunion of the band members, who had gone separate ways in the late 90s. The band did not maintain the momentum and went through some personnel changes. They returned in 2018 with Jazz, Groove & Attitude, an album that paid homage to the 70s jazz-funk sound and contemporary jazz groups like The Crusaders. The album received a strong response from listeners, especially the single "George Is His Name". The band followed up with two more albums, Your Horizon Too (2020) and Old Friends, New Grooves (2021), featuring former and new bandmates.
Tipp decided to launch his solo career, starting with the single "Groove Together", co-written and produced by saxophonist Darren Rahn. He then released another single, "Time to Roll", featuring saxophonist Quintin Gerard W. and produced by Adam Hawley. His debut solo album, Table for One, came out in December 2023, featuring guest appearances by Greg Vail, Ilya Serov, and others. The album showcased Tipp's versatility and creativity as a keyboardist and composer. Tipp has been recognized for his musical achievements and contributions. He has received several awards and nominations, such as the Smooth Jazz Network's Breakout Artist of the Year, the JazzWeek Radio Chart's Most Added Artist, and the Smooth Jazz News' Best New Artist. He has also been featured in various media outlets, such as Billboard, JazzTimes, Smooth Jazz Magazine, and The Smooth Jazz Ride. Tipp continues to make music and perform live this 2024, both as a solo artist and with Under The Lake. He is also involved in other projects, such as Pincho Factory, a fast-casual restaurant chain where he serves as the CEO. He lives in Miami with his wife and two children.
