I began playing music professionally while a high school and college student in New Orleans in the late 70's and early 80's. I'm sure that if I had begun my career in other city, my survival as a fulltime musician would have been short-lived. The music history, the vibrant music culture, and the experience of working and competing in the tourist/entertainment based economy of New Orleans taught me the difference between a "rock star" and a "professional musician." The lesson was invaluable because, while I've never been a rock star, I have been blessed to earn 100% of my income as a performing musician for over 30 years.
OCTOBER 27, 1977 - FIRST PROFESSIONAL PERFORMANCE
ST. ELIZABETH'S ORPHANAGE FOR GIRLS, NEW ORLEANS
It was a Halloween party for 300 girls...as member of the band Free Flight
I was 16. And I'm pretty sure I've never played a better gig than that one.
After eight years spent in the trade show/special event/off-site marketing industry, I returned to a life of music in 1994 and have never looked back. Between band and solo performances, I've played well-over 4,000 shows since 1994...I haven't had time to look back!
I formed the band On the Beach in 1995. My first CD of original music was released in 1997, but the primary focus was simple: earn a living playing music by playing as many shows as humanly possible. Between 1995-2001, we averaged over 200 shows a year by combining summers that included 2 shows a day / 7 days a week on the Lake Erie Islands circuit with a winter routine of 5 shows a week in Northern Michigan hotels and ski resorts. Although more than 70 different musicians appeared on stage as part of On the Beach over the years...a core group of players became a family of players...the band got tight, and we got good.
A CAREER SPANNING OVER 30 YEARS
AND OVER 4,000 PERFORMANCES
Following the release of the On the Beach "People & Places" CD in 2001, our repertoire included enough of my songs to support concerts of original music and the emphasis shifted from playing the island bar, casino, ski resort circuit - to featuring original music at fairs, festivals, and concert events of all shapes and sizes...including what must have been every single gazebo in the states of Ohio and Michigan. Between 1995-2015, Jeff Tucker & On the Beach played over 3,000 shows. We twice performed live on the Mitch Albom Show for a national ABC Radio network audience of 2.5 million listeners. In 2005, after a decades-long tradition of having the Toledo Symphony simulcast live during the City of Toledo's Fourth of July celebration, On the Beach became the first pop act to be featured during the event - performing before the fireworks for an audience of over 70,000. Over the course of the next ten years, the band was always in demand and always worked, but On the Beach eventually became more of a brand than an actual band - so, after 20 years, I retired the name in 2015. The name was retired but I still work with musicians from every phase of my career, and members of the On the Beach family are always part of "the band". Original music is still very much a part of me and what I do...my most recent CD of original music, "Rock & Roll Soul" was released in 2017.
STILL GOING SERIOUSLY STRONG
OVER 140 SHOWS IN 13 STATES IN 2022
157 SHOWS IN 9 STATES IN 2023
From 2013-Covid19, I served as the exclusive performer for all events east of the Colorado Rockies for Global Exchange Events,one of the nation's leading producers of appointment-based business-to-business events held at some of the South's finest hotel-resort properties. Seven years of Exchange Events performances in New Orleans, Amelia Island, Austin, Naples, Boca Raton, Miami, Palm Beach, Charleston, and the Carolina Lowcountry provided invaluable exposure to an ever-growing list of corporate and private event clientele. The band and I have been as busy as ever the past couple of years, and I look forward to continuing our roll right into 2024. See you there! JT
I have a proven track record of professionalism, a long history of repeat concert,
corporate, private, and special event clientele, and I offer competitive band and solo performance rates from
Northern Michigan to South Florida...New Orleans & the Gulf Coast to the Carolina Lowcountry.
Available seven days a week, year-round.
