about

There once was a sea dragon who fell in love with the Moon, and the Moon loved him back – but they were separated by distance and impossibility.

On calm, clear nights, the Moon would reach out to the dragon across the great expanse of the sea, her silvery light paving a glittering path to her heart. The dragon would take wing toward her, and as he flew, he and the Moon would sing to each other, their voices weaving sweetly together above the rippling waves.

But they were separated by distance and impossibility, so eventually the Dragon would sink back to rest upon the surging sea, still gazing up at his love's shining face -- exhausted, but nonetheless filled with joy. For he was in love with the Moon, and he knew the Moon loved him back.

(For Becky, who asked me to write “something dark and epic, with dragons in.”)

Rootless Digital Single

I walked away from playing music ten years ago, disgusted with music and myself. SJ Tucker's songs have played no small part in bringing me back in a truly strange yet beautiful way. The blisters on my fingers and the gloom in my heart are nearly healed. I sat down my new acoustic guitar to write a comment about some heavy medicine and now I'm going to get back to my therapy. I can't thank you enough SJ! Keep up the good work! roddylloyd

Stolen Season
by S. J. Tucker

A silky, smooth, sultry voice weaving lyrical imagery upon a canvas of exquisite tonal contours. Immensely pleasurable. The bouncy cheer of " Little Bird" is a delightful contrast to the dusky jazz groove of this truly beautiful album. Much gratitude for you S J ! roddylloyd
