Outside of film, she starred in the HBO supernatural drama series The Leftovers (2014–2017), the BBC period drama series Gunpowder (2017), the ITV/Hulu period drama series Harlots (2018–2019), and the Foxprocedural drama series 9-1-1: Lone Star (2020). Tyler is also a singer. Having sung with composer Howard Shore, she appeared as a guest vocalist on The Lemonheads' album Varshons (2009), singing a cover of the Leonard Cohen song "Hey, That's No Way to Say Goodbye." She appeared on the 2017 bonus disc of Evan Dando's album Baby I'm Bored (2003), providing featured vocals for the song "Shots Is Fired." In 2011, she released her debut single, "Need You Tonight.". Tyler has served as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador for the United States since 2003 and as a spokesperson for Givenchy's line of perfume and cosmetics.
