"Offering" by Bird By Snow • LP • 2013
Offering is my 5th record (and the last Bird By Snow release). Recorded and performed entirely by me. Eight completely analog recordings put to tape at various power spots in Big Sur, California. This wild landscape, relatively new to me, is the primary inspiration for the album. I attempt to envision and summon stories from an ancient future. The tales of people living timelessly in place. Folk songs for future generations of the re-indigenous people. Sung by me as I myself am learning to live close to the land.

"It billows, it ebbs, it flows, it trickles, it floods, but most of all, it draws you in. Tucker has a knack for bottling sounds as vast as the Pacific into songs that convey both an intimate charm and a spacious ambiance; they're sprawling but no less direct." – Mixtape Muse
"Everything you need to know and ever felt about Big Sur in one restrained song." [referring to "Wide Open"] – Impose Magazine
"If anyone ever had a doubt about a one-man band creating beautiful music, their doubts can now be laid to rest." – Altsounds
"...utterly compelling tracks full of terrifyingly wide open introspection and communal mysticism rooted in ceremony. Offering is intense." – Tome to the Weather Machine
