Search - Tamarama :: Wonderland City

Taking their name from a little known Australian beach where they grew up, "Tamarama's" Jay Lyon and Nicolas "Pottsy" Potts have nurtured a sound reflecting life on the shores of OZ, with a mix of folk, rock reggae rhythms, breezy melodies and easy going lyrics. Over 123K plays on Myspace & sold +10,000 copies of their debut EP in Australia. Early feedback points to Tamarama as a hip, modern Jack Johnson sound with International appeal. Tamarama is now based in New York City, far from the tranquil settings of their old stomping grounds. The new surroundings and its diversity have helped develop their sound, broaden their influences and deepen their style. Having been featured in the most recent episode of MTV's "The Hills", Jay Lyon has a feature recurring role on the brand new MTV "The Hills" spin-off show "The City". Playing himself, Jay is the love interest of the "The Hills" star, Whitney Port. To summarize the new series; Whitney Port packs up and moves from the comforts of her hometown in Los Angeles, California, to the bright lights of Manhattan. She has a great new job at global design house, Diane Von Furstenberg, a best friend from her past and a guy she's head-over-heels for (Jay Lyon).
