“Tucker is not only fantastic; she’s like a character out of a fantasy novel. She weaves myth and magic into her lyrics as easily as a strain of cello, a lick of something electric, the chuffing of a train engine…Tucker has a knack – no, a genius – for weaving old ways with new.”
–C. S. E. Cooney, blackgate.com
“S. J. Tucker sounds like no one else out there. I’m not sure if she is fairy, shape-shifter, otherworldly, or just a super intelligent, super perceptive young woman…Critics have compared her voice to Joni Mitchell and Tori Amos, her guitar style to Emily Saliers. I believe she is a complete original coming straight from Neverland where Magick is real.”
—Phil King, Audiofuzz.com

New Release on Halloween + Listening Party 10/30!
I’m releasing a spooky treat for Halloween, and I want to make sure you get the opportunity to enjoy it.
This is a storytelling collaboration many years in the making, with my author brother Phil Brucato. I’m so grateful he’s allowed me to bring his brilliant story to life. Listen for free and pre-order your download here!
I’ll host a FREE listening party online tomorrow night, shortly before the release drops! RSVP and join us here for that!
“Gramma Wolf’s Garden” is a gorgeous fairy tale that looks at an alternate Red Riding Hood retelling through the lens of real magic, herb lore, family drama, and wolf pack dynamics. I fell in love with it long ago, and when Phil asked me to be its narrator for a full audiobook (still in progress) of his collection, Valhalla with a Twist of Lethe, I was overjoyed. Yall know I love to read aloud, to produce audiobooks, and to narrate them, in addition to writing, recording, and performing my songs. This is the coolest bit of work along those storytelling lines that I’ve done in a long time. Listen free and enjoy for yourselves!
CW: grief, parent-child conflict, brief mention of childbirth, death of a spouse, death by injury and by magical causes.
This download will also be available on all the streaming platforms soon. I’m not sure quite when it will show up, as I’m at the mercy of my distributor’s delivery schedule, but hopefully we won’t be waiting long!
Yours truly on Patreon – even $1 and $3 pledges make a difference to me! Thank you all so much!
