“A carpenter by trade, singer/songwriter Dave Tucker takes a blue-collar approach to making music. Fourth studio effort “In Kind,” by all rights, should be the platter that helps raise his profile considerably. The 12-track release showcases Tucker’s versatility, with tunes dabbin in everything from American, folks and roots to country, reggae and pop. Despite the variety of styles, “In Kind” is a cohesive album that feels genuine and heartfelt from beginning to end. ”
