Tying Tiffany was born in Padua. In the early years of her career she has travelled Europe as bass player and singer in various indie rock bands and she has acted in some independent movies, artistic films and theatrical performances.[6][7][8]
In 2005 she decides to share an electronic music project including her song You Know Me in the Full Body Workout vol. 2 compilation for the Berlin based label Get Physical. Her debut album Undercover, released in 2005, is a work that moves from her passion for industrial, dark and punk music and her Disc jockey EBM experience. Undercover is acclaimed by international press, media and public and becomes one of the Italian music cases of 2006.[6][7]
Tiffany performed many concerts in this past year, playing in Italy and Europe and sharing the stage with artists like Iggy Pop, Buzzcocks, Stereo Total, The Rapture, Eels, dEUS, Tiga, and Alec Empire with whom she tours in 2008.[6][9]
After a show on the NME stage at Groningen's Festival, the label I Scream Records takes a deal with Tying Tiffany to release her second album called Brain for Breakfast, in 2007. Brain for Breakfast featuring collaborations with Wolfgang Schrödl (Liquido), Pete Namlook and Nic Endo (Atari Teenage Riot and Alec Empire). Soon after this second album a European tour follows in over 80 dates.[6][7]
In the meanwhile she gains the Italian award PVI (Best Screenplay) for the music video Pazza directed by Marco Marchesi.[10][11] More: the other music video Slow Motion (with Nic Endo's remix) is aired in Europe and Asia.[6]
In 2010 Tying Tiffany signs a deal with the German label Trisol for her third album Peoples Temple. Peoples Temple takes inspiration from the homonymous San Francisco's cult led by Jim Jones guilty for the 1978 mass suicide.[6][12] In the fall of 2010 CBS uses the song Storycide on an episode of the TV series CSI: Las Vegas (Season 11, Episode 03, Title Blood Moon, On air October 7 in the United States).[5][13]
In 2011, her single "Drowning" was featured on the FIFA 12 soundtrack.
