Yves Tumor (born Sean Bowie in Miami, Florida) is an American musician and producer, known for the experimental elements in their music.

Tumor was raised in Knoxville, Tennessee, and in an interview with Dazed Digital they describe the surroundings that prompted them to start making music. Tumor describes Knoxville as “a very conservative, racist, homophobic, sexist environment.” They also go on to say, “My shut-in days were mostly in Knoxville, ’cos there’s really nothing to do there. The kids were just, like, lots of parties and prescription drugs, just miserable.” Tumor credits this environment to prompting them to stay inside and learn instruments such as drums, guitar, bass, and keyboard.

Tumor has worked with artists such as Diana Gordon, Joji, Mykki Blanco, Kelsey Lu, Ecco2k and more. Tumor has led a successful career and proves to be an inspiration to many, while also expressing themselves in their works.
