06 - ROBBIE TUCKER: Singer, Songwriter, Jack-of-all-trades.

Nov 3

Robbie Tucker does not let Parkinson's disease get in the way of producing all the music he is bursting with. Tune in and connect with us for an hour; this man has a lot of songs and words that he wants to share with you.

"There is always a fun way to tell a story." Robbie Tucker is, among many things, a storyteller.

He tells stories through his songs, and in this podcast you'll hear him tell the stories behind the songs.

But, how much fun should be expected from you if your diagnosis is making it hard for you to socialise, make plans, and even hindering you from performing your music live?

I myself imagine I'd be playing Death Metal if I were in Robbie's shoes. But Robbie is not the kind of guy who feels sorry for himself.

In his latest album, 'The Way I Feel Vol.1', his stories are getting darker than before. It's not always autobiographical though - there are dogs in the woods, and domestic abuse.

And the big question still remains, as it does for so many musicians - how do we reach our audience?

We read all the articles, use all the platforms, use all the features, spend countless hours of our time on trying to reach the people who love what we do.

We don't have the answer for you today, but we can offer you some company if you feel alone.
