MUSIC REVIEW: Kate Tucker - Ghost of Something New EP (Noise Trade) - I'm going to tell all you manly men types with your new mustaches and hippie cologne. You would not want to leave this girl for fear she'd write a killer song which on first listen would turn you into a puddle of salt. So fair warning. Lucky for you she mixes it up a bit on her most recent EP but still delivers sultry alt country angel tinged vocals that are truly aspirational. The shining light of alt-rock maybe. You can be brave [...]

A finales del año 2007 hablábamos por aquí de Kate Tucker y su colaboración con The Sons Of Sweeden, con quienes acababa de publicar su álbum de debut que conseguía entusiasmarnos gracias a sus dulces melodías y la preciosa voz de Kate.

: Our Favorite Artists and Their Favorite Love Songs I don't have a lot to say about this album compilation from Starbucks but AMAZING! There is an eclectic mix of genres from country to techno and these noteworthy artists did justice to their favorite love songs. Most if not all versions of the originals are acoustic and listening to these tracks just give any venue a coffeehouse vibe (pun intended). Audio quality is great, so nothing to worry about. Get a taste [...]

As part of the first installment of the Cameraphonic Sessions, I decided to make the most of my time up at Bumbershoot and to catch a few acts who would be willing to be part of the series. I met with Kate Tucker and her guitarist, Mark Isakson, at an Eastlake apartment building very reminiscent of [...]

Photo by Thomas Stuby Below is the first of many entries like this. We call it the "Turn the Page" posts and it's where we flip the idea of 52 Shows around. Instead of a writer reviewing a show, we have the artist on stage tell us what their experience was like. This was the first one we got and I'm sorry it took so long to get up (we were hoping for a dedicated page, but for now, this will do). Anyway, enjoy. And many thanks to Kate Tucker & The [...]

In a previous edition of our MP3 freebies I posted a song that really touched me and that proved to be a true on repeat by Kate Tucker & the Sons of Sweden, namely the slow motioned soundtrack of Faster Then Cars. This time I'd like to put to your attention a song of at least similar beauty and musical craftsmanship, called " In The End ." The track revolves around Kate's mellow falsettos, with a laid back guitar line on the background and relaxing percussions. A excellent song for when you're feeling a [...]
