Tyler Reese Mehlenbacher (born September 30, 1993), known professionally as Tyler Reese, is an American record producer, songwriter, musician and composer from Richland, Washington. He first became known as one half of the music production duo The Donuts, which he formed with Sergiu Gherman. Working closely with their mentor Bēkon, The Donuts produced for notable names such as SZA, Kendrick Lamar, Hozier, H.E.R. and Joji, among others. Beginning his solo career in 2022, Reese has since produced two songs on Kendrick Lamar’s GNX ("wacced out murals" & "man at the garden") and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media for The Color Purple (2023).
