meet kate tucker & the sons of sweden
Posted Wed, 07/01/2009 - 17:00 — Make It Or Break ItOhio-born-and-raised Kate Tucker has been playing guitar since the age of 16, and music has taken her from Akron, Ohio, to places like Paris and Seattle, where she lives now. She put out her first album, "Eros Turannos," in 2005, with help from producer Ryan Hadlock, who's also worked with Blonde Redhead, the Gossip, and Metric.
But it wasn't till 2007 that she formed her band, Kate Tucker & the Sons of Sweden, and they released their sparkly, shimmering debut. Ryan Hadlock produced the collection, which features guest appearances by Nic Danielson of the Kindness Kind and Seattle's Damien Jurado.
You heard their tune "Everything Went Down" this week on "Make It or Break It ." You might have also heard Kate's cover of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire" on the Starbucks "Sweetheart" compilation, or her own "Faster Than Cars Drive" on the chain's "Have You Heard" compilation. Kate Tucker & the Sons of Sweden are hard at work now on their next record, but you can get their first one at all the online stores.
Why do you think they call themselves sons of Sweden?
