Recording a new E.P. due out in August!

About Me

My name is Tucker and I write songs.

I am currently recording my debut E.P. with Paul Young on lead guitar and vocal harmonies. It is being engineered by Adam Meisterhans. They are two cool dudes.You can expect this tasty disc to drop sometime in August, hopefully sooner rather than later.

Everything you hear now are rough demos done with one microphone. Hope you enjoy.
