Dara Tucker Band

ABOUT DARA
"I can't remember the last time I heard a new vocalist who impressed me so completely as Tucker. She has a beautiful, soulful voice, and her original songs are honest and innocent personal expressions backed by languid arrangements and skilled playing." Marc Myers (JazzWax/Wall Street Journal)

From opening for Grammy Award-winning vocalist Gregory Porter to appearing on the Tavis Smiley Show on PBS to winning the Nashville Industry Music Award for best jazz vocalist, vocalist Dara Tucker is making her mark in the world of jazz and beyond with a blend of soul, Americana, Gospel and Jazz that is uniquely her own. Her 2017 album, "Oklahoma Rain", showcases her as a formidable songwriter, able to express love, loss and healing in one fell swoop. Having performed on many of the major jazz stages in the U.S., including The Blue Note (NYC), San Jose Jazz Festival, Mid Atlantic Jazz Festival, Snug Harbor (New Orleans) and Scullers (Boston), Dara Tucker is poised to establish herself as one of the fresh, contemporary voices that will help to seamlessly move one of musics greatest traditions into the 21st century.
