Dance of Love (Vinyl LP, Recycled)

This has to be one of the most magnificent musical surprises of the year. Folk singer Tucker Zimmerman is 83 years old, and to be honest we had never heard his name before the new song Burial At Sea landed recently, despite having been releasing music since the 1960s. Thanks are due to Big Thief, Zimmerman's backing band on this extraordinary album, for tracking him down and taking him on tour, then eventually recording Dance Of Love. One listen, your heart will melt. - Flying Out

Tucker, now 83, is a hugely prolific and largely unknown cult musician in the folk world, releasing music since the 1960s. David Bowie counted the 1969 Tony Visconti-produced ‘Ten Songs by Tucker Zimmerman’ among his favourite 10 albums of all time.  In 2022, Big Thief connected with Tucker and took him on tour, starting a beautiful creative relationship. Earlier this year, they got back together at Big Thief’s Double Infinity studio to record a collaborative album ‘Dance of Love’ produced by Big Thief and featuring Adrianne vocals across many tracks. The result is a beautiful wholesome album that we’re honoured to be releasing and in doing so, hope to bring Tucker and his enduring legacy into the spotlight.
