With a voice described as “commanding and clear” (NPR), vocalist, songwriter and cultural commentator Dara Starr Tucker weaves a rich tapestry of sound and story.
Tucker’s artistry extends far beyond the studio. A Woodshed Network Fellow, selected for the prestigious program founded by jazz legend Dee Dee Bridgewater, she has toured and recorded with guitarist Charlie Hunter and co-wrote the title track for Keb’ Mo’s 2020 Grammy-winning album, Oklahoma.
Tucker was the silver medalist at the American Traditions Vocal Competition, where she also won the Johnny Mercer Award and the Ben Tucker Jazz Award prizes. Her 2021 release, Dreams of Waking, reached #7 on JazzWeek’s national radio charts, while songs from her previous album, Dara Starr Tucker, were included on Apple Music’s Jazz Vocal Essentials, Spotify’s Best Jazz Vocals 2023 and Amazon Music’s Vocal Jazz playlists, further cementing her status as a rising voice in modern jazz.
Tucker’s thought-provoking commentary and musical storytelling have garnered her national attention. She has been featured on NPR’s Jazz Night in America, NPR’s Jazz Inspired, and is currently the host of “The Front Page” on Radio Free 102.3FM in Los Angeles, a station owned by Stevie Wonder.
A powerful presence on social media, Tucker uses her platform to explore race, culture, faith, film, and music—garnering a combined following of over 1.3 million across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Her videos, commentary, and songs have been featured on HBO, FX/Hulu, The OWN Network, BET.com, Revolt.com, Shondaland.com, Ebony, and Jet.
