As the city of Nashville has grown, David Tucker’s boots have been on the ground in more ways than one. By day he’s worked as a welder, building the new skyscrapers that define the skyline; by night he’s been writing, performing in town and honing his craft. Tucker has diversified his skills, rounding himself out as an all-around musician by writing, singing, and playing guitar, bass, drums and piano, amongst others, while also applying his artist’s ear by co-writing and producing projects for others.

“…thank God you were Mister Wrong, now she’s Miss Taken…” What inspired the co-write (with Francis Collins, Jake Saghi, and Lainey Wilson) for “Miss Taken?”

Double entendres are plays on words that I love to include in a lot of my songs. With the help of my co-writers (Lainey, Francis, and Jake), we were able to pull the story together
