Kate Tucker Kicks Off SINGLES CLUB with A Little Bit of Love

Like the light at the end of the tunnel, Kate Tucker throws down a shiny pop pain reliever in the call-to-action anthem “A Little Bit of Love.” Out April 3, “A Little Bit of Love” is the first track from Singles Club, a series of songs full of life and energy, that couldn’t be more perfectly timed. A new song will be released every month, leading up to the EP at the end of summer.

A Little Bit of Love” was written and produced by Tucker and Gregory Lattimer (Albert Hammond Jr, The Strokes), recorded in Lattimer’s Nashville studio. Tucker says it started like many of their songs do. “Gregory came up with this beat, and one of his signature ‘nursery-rhyme’ melodies that would become the verse. It felt like my twenties, living in Brooklyn, walking across the Williamsburg Bridge in the summertime to go see my friends’ band on the Lower East Side, that sense of anticipation when the city lights come on across the water and everything is just about to happen. It doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from, or how much money you have in your pocket -- there’s a magic to it and everyone feels alive for at least one moment. That’s what New York is to me. Even though those days were rough and I was scrapping, I always somehow had enough and that’s where I learned that a little bit of love goes a long long way.”

With open-hearted songwriting and a voice that recalls sorrow reconciling with hope, Kate Tucker’s music reflects the chiaroscuro of life with compelling honesty and strength. Unafraid to share her own experiences with loss, her confessions carry a light that burns softly throughout her songs. They follow a throughline of healing, a way to exist in spite of suffering. Tucker has garnered a devoted fan base grassroots style, releasing everything on her own independent label, Red Valise. Her songs have charted college and commercial radio, and landed spots on numerous TV shows, feature films, and compilations. She’s toured extensively, with appearances at Bumbershoot, SXSW and Bonnaroo. Tucker is currently in Nashville writing for her new record, and directing the documentary Comeback Evolution, on the life and work of artist Walter Delbridge. Her full length LP and the film are both set for release in 2021.
