Biography

Kris Tyler was born December 20, 1964 in Omaha, Nebraska.[1] Tyler began working in television, including a production role at KNXV-TV in Phoenix, Arizona, but expressed interest in songwriting. Through recommendations by other artists, she was signed to Rising Tide Records in 1997. The label issued her only album, What a Woman Knows, at the beginning of 1998.[2] Both "Keeping Your Kisses" and "What a Woman Knows" made the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts.[1] An uncredited review in the same publication was favorable toward the album, praising Tyler's singing voice and songwriting, as well as the production work of Emory Gordy Jr. and Tony Brown.[3] Promotion of the album stopped in April 1998 when Rising Tide Records closed.[4]
