Tuck & Daisy Not Crying Wolf With Album Crowd Funding Campaign

Sophisticated lyrics and vocal harmonies can't be missed



    PORTLAND, OR, November 08, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Indie folk band Tuck & Daisy, Oregon natives, have just recorded their first studio album, The Roar & The Quiet. They recently released a digital single off the upcoming album, while launching a crowdfunding campaign to offset the cost of CD production. They plan to release their debut CD in January 2015.

Tuck & Daisy recorded and mixed their upcoming 12-track LP with Kendra Lynn at Jackpot! Recording Studio in Portland; Lynn has worked with other renowned artists such as REM, Pearl Jam, Death Cab for Cutie and She & Him. Adam Gonsalves of Telegraph Mastering, also in Portland, mastered the album.

When downloading a free copy of "Don't Go Crying Wolf" you'll hear the influence of Joan Baez on Smith's voice as she liltingly howls throughout that tune. Likewise, the lyrical prowess of Dylan and Guthrie comes through in Isakson's original songwriting. Capturing the essence of their musical talents, The Roar & The Quiet takes listeners through an ebb and flow of human emotion with tender vocal harmonies that are simultaneously honest, innocent, and timeless. Smith's ukulele, is but one of the fresh breezes Tuck & Daisy bring to their LP and the indie folk scene. Another is Isakson's expressive guitar styling that captures the best of folk's root sounds.

Before the album can be released , Tuck & Daisy must successfully complete an IndieGoGo crowd funding campaign where The Roar & The Quiet is available to Pre-Order. Investors who support album production will be rewarded and thanked with perks such as digital downloads of the album, signed collector's CD, customized posters, a chance to be part of the album art, The Roar & The Quiet T-shirt, tickets to the Album Release Show, plus more.

Tuck & Daisy and The Roar & The Quiet album team understand not everyone may be able to give money to help with this project. They ask that those who cannot give monetarily help by spreading the word about The Roar & The Quiet online through social media such as Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr; and invite friends and supporters of local music to give to or share this IndieGoGo fundraiser.

"We are unsigned, independent musicians," says Isakson. "We released 'Don't Go Crying Wolf' as a free downloadable single because we are so excited to share the music we created with the world. But, we can't release the full album unless our IndieGoGo campaign is successful. We dedicated so much time, energy, money, blood, sweat and tears to bring our music this far. It is incredibly exciting to be so close to manufacturing 'The Roar & the Quiet' and delivering it into the hands of our fans."

Tuck & Daisy's IndieGoGo campaign concludes November 26, the day before Thanksgiving. A successful end to the campaign will give both the band and their fans much to be thankful about.

About Tuck & Daisy
Tuck & Daisy are a force of inspiring lyrics infused with infectious melodies and intimate harmonies. Founded in 2010; Portland, Oregon's Erik "Tuck" Isakson and Amy "Daisy" Smith have evolved from troubadour street musicians barely scraping by, to fiercely organized professional indie artists. Their dynamic live performance caught the attention of Boulder, CO bass virtuoso Josh Jaffe. Joining the group as an official satellite member for the Colorado leg of their successful 2014 self managed tour, Jaffe also contributes his melodic bass stylings to Tuck & Daisy's debut studio LP The Roar & The Quiet, set to release in early 2015.
