Tietgen began his musical career as the guitarist and primary songwriter for The Serfs, who achieved some fame in and around the band's home state of Kansas. In 1970, the blues-jazz-rock band, The Jerry Hahn Brotherhood, recorded seven Tietgen compositions, including "Captain Bobby Stout", "Early Bird Cafe", and "Martha's Madman". The Jerry Hahn Brotherhood featured Hahn, Mike Finnigan, Clyde Graves and George Marsh.[4][5]

In 2009 The Serfs were inducted into the Kansas Music Hall of Fame.[6] That same year, Tietgen released a solo album, Wheels of Fortune, featuring all original songs.[7]

Tietgen regularly performed live as a folk singer and guitarist in music venues.[8]
