Tanner

🧡 Tanner: The Ginger Adventurer and Loudest Buff Boy

Meet Tanner, the red-headed, noise-disrupting heart of the Buff Boy crew. For a long time, Tanner was the quiet outlier; our famously superficial team members (looking at you, Collin) joked that they simply “hadn’t gotten around” to getting to know him because of his fiery hair color. Not that he cramps our style, but… well, you know how we are.

The “Skin Pics” Redemption

Like his colleague Drewsy, Tanner only truly registered on the Buff Boy radar when his skin pics started making the rounds on social media. Suddenly, our DMs were ablaze with fans proclaiming they “don’t see (hair) color” in their newfound appreciation. Tanner’s natural, sun-kissed physique instantly secured his spot among the team’s visible talent. It only took a little online validation for the rest of us to remember he exists.

Open Roads, Open Mouths

Tanner is our resident adventurer. If he’s not expertly roasting a batch of beans, he’s hitting the open road, exploring California’s stunning, and usually silent, wilderness.

Tanner is the guy who ensures that no piece of nature remains quiet for long. He’s the first one to crank the music on a road trip, and his terrible, off-key singing is the guaranteed soundtrack to any crew cruise. On hiking trails and in the rolling hills of rural California, Tanner is easily identified by the blast of sound coming from his portable speaker—a stark contrast to the rustling leaves.

He also suffers from a chronic condition we call Public-Singing-While-Headphoned Syndrome (PSWHS). You’ll often spot him walking down the street, blissfully unaware, belting out a power chorus while wearing his giant over-ear headphones. His music taste is pure, infectious road-trip fuel: catchy pop, classic driving rock, and anything that makes you want to roll the windows down and sing loudly (even if you’re a Drew-level singer with a Tanner-level voice).

Tune in to Tanner’s country jams for the ultimate adventure playlist—music that pairs perfectly with a thermos of Buff Boy coffee, a full tank of gas and a total disregard for the quiet contemplation of others. Yeehaw!
