Boyd Tinsley (b. May 16, 1964, Charlottesville, Virginia) is the violinist and one of the backup singers in the American jam band Dave Matthews Band. He was raised in a highly musical family; his father was a choir director and his uncle a bass/trumpet player for local bands. Coincidentally, he grew up in the same neighborhood as future Dave Matthews Band drummer Carter Beauford and saxophonist LeRoi Moore. He learned violin by accidentally signing up for a middle school orchestra class, intending to study the guitar. The idea of learning the violin, however, was interesting enough to him so that he stuck with it.
