Fond of Tigers is a Canadian seven-piece post-rock instrumental band from Vancouver. An article in Exclaim! describes the band's sound: "with cacophonous explosions of percussion and guitar underlying wild strains of trumpet and violin, only to drop out for unexpected, ambient glimmers of a once-roaring piece." The group began in 2000 as a solo project of guitarist Stephen Lyons. After Lyons' pop group Beauventure disbanded, Lyons performed solo, and soon began playing along with tape loops and recorded sounds.

In 2003 the project expanded to become a full band. Band members include Stephen Lyons on guitar, JP Carter on trumpet, Morgan McDonald on piano, Jesse Zubot on violin, Shanto Bhattacharya on bass, and Skye Brooks and Dan Gaucher on drums. In June 2006, they released the debut album, A Thing To Live With. Their second album, Release the Saviours, was released on November 27, 2007. Their third album, "Continent & Western" was released on Sept. 21, 2010 and it won a Juno Award for best instrumental album in 2011. The albums were released on Vancouver-based label Drip Audio, operated by Jesse Zubot. Their third album, Continent & Western was a co-release with Offseason Records.

The band has performed at the Vancouver Jazz Festival and the Festival International de Musique Actuelle de Victoriaville, the Guelph Jazz Festival, the Sled Island Music Festival and Sappyfest. After a hiatus of several years, in 2016 the band reconvened and released an album, Uninhabit, once again through Drip Audio. In 2017 they were nominated for a Western Canadian Music Award.
