Music – Austin
Where were you when Napster slammed the coffin lid shut on the old-school music business? Tucker Jameson was writing songs in his suburban Connecticut bedroom and playing guitar till his little 10-year-old fingers ached or his mother commanded, “Lights out!” While his classmates pored over Harry Potter books or glued their thumbs to Nintendo games, Jameson scrutinized the liner notes to Revolver and Nevermind.
Jameson is part of the first post-CD generation, yet he’s steeped in the rock classics that form a necessary foundation for anyone hoping to build a music career lasting longer than the blink of a YouTube video.
After landing in Austin, he used his rock appreciation and Berklee-honed skills to write modern songs that speak to his own generation. His last EP \"Son Of Superbia\" includes songs that contain the kind of power-pop songcraft that fans of any rock era can identify with. In 2013 he and his band toured the country and worked on new music to be released in 2014.
