what people are saying:
“Daniel Tucker is a fantastic singer and we’re going to create a super cool record together!”— Ben Leinbach, multi-instrumentalist and producer of Jai Uttal’s albums |
“Daniel is so full of life, love, intensity and power, and is a very, very talented man. His music and energy is infectious, and you can’t help but want to share in this incredible journey that he’s embarking upon. Join him, share with him, listen to him, and you will be uplifted!!” — C.C. White, soul, gospel, kirtan singer extraordinaire |
“Daniel Tucker is heralding the arrival of the next generation of kirtanistas, bringing fresh new takes and divine energy to the age-old form. Daniel invariably raises the roof with his enthusiasm, expert musicianship and vocal stylings that are clearly inspired by and destined to stand alongside Jai Uttal. Keep an eye on this bright-spirited artist who is unquestionably a fast-ascending rising star.” — Lloyd Barde, Common Ground’s music editor, producer of the Rudramandir Performing Arts Concert Series in Berkeley |
“Daniel’s musical ability and spiritual emotions run deep and true.” — Jai Uttal |
“Daniel is one of my favorite upcoming kirtan artists. His strong musicianship and powerful voice are beautiful and compelling, but the joy and pure heart he sings with are the magic ingredients that make him unforgettable. I’m thrilled to hear that he’s going to be working with Ben Leinbach, and am so looking forward to what I’m sure will be an incredible album and a classic in the genre.” — Prajna Vierra of the kirtan band Mukti |
“It’s great to hear a truly Modern Musician take kirtan and inject it with influences as wide as gospel, rock, and disco [!] alongside the more folkloric elements of Indian vocal music. Daniel infuses his songs with rich arranging and flat-out vocal virtuosity. We can only imagine what will emerge in a few short years.” — Michael Smolens, veteran composer, bandleader, and recording artist |
