SInger-songwriter
Tucker Livingston is an award-winning singer-songwriter and guitarist.
He has been a featured artist at The Austin City Limits Music Festival, SXSW Music Festival, Kerrville Folk Festival and Voice of America. In the spring of 2003, Tucker won the Austin Music Foundation's Incubator program grant, which provides artists guidance to create, market and release a recorded work.
The recording was done at Viewpoint Studio outside of Austin, Texas and was produced by Mitch Watkins and engineered by Jim Vollentine.
The debut received critical acclaim, and along with TV and Radio airplay reached the 6th most downloaded folk album on iTunes folk music charts for one month. Soon after the record release, Ballet Austin's national award winning choreographer and dancer Gina Patterson created a work "No Defense" for Austin's 2004 Winter Ballet "3x3" to Tucker's music in four sold-out performances at the Paramount Theater. Tucker appeared along side the like of Grammy Award winner Sean Colvin and Grupo Fantasma.
Tucker's songs have now been featured in the film Maturing Youth, directed by award-winning director Michael Polanski.
Livingston has been a member of Texas music director Neal Kassanoff’s Groundworks Music Orchestra, a non-profit musical group that guides children in exploring music, instruments and new musical concepts, once described as the “Wilco of children’s music groups.”
Along with pursuing his solo career, he has collaborated and toured for 15 years with his musician father, Bob Livingston, traveling throughout Asia, Africa and the Middle East on grants from the U.S. Government to act as an official United States Ambassador of American music. Tucker is also a member of his father’s Texas Commission of the arts multiply awarded music group “Cowboys and Indians”, and interactive show for children and adults fusing Native American and contemporary American music and folklore with East Indian music and dance.
Tucker Livingston currently lives between Wimberley and San Marcos, Texas. He continues to perform live and is starting work on a new record for 2025.
Quotes
“Tucker Livingston is a poet who aims at the Heart, not the Chart. When you reach the Heart, the Chart will follow. People will want to acquire the music because it fills a space in the soul. A natural poet-minstrel chooses his words and instrumental arrangements in such a way that the phrases become emotional truth. Tucker’s music is simply Free Expression and Flowing Melody that makes sense where it matters most- in the elusive, mysterious place Humankind calls the Heart. Tucker Livingston knows the Heart is hard to reach, but he understands that when you get there, you are most certainly Home.
”
“I just had a chance to listen to a couple of songs by Tucker Livingston, and it has to be said that they are incredible by any standard ! To state that they capture the essence of a line finely and purposely drawn is only to comment on the line itself and not the context or the space around it, the nuance of decisions made, purpose defined, and course precisely determined. Tucker’s voice so perfectly and achingly compliments matters well considered and put to rest, although not without some regret, second thoughts, and more than a trace of melancholy. Likewise, his ability to address, through hope and consideration, the subject of his affection, buoying and hopeful in the most tender of ways.”
“A true original, in a musical world all his own.”
