Tuk Smith & The Restless Hearts Debut Single “What Kinda Love”
If rock is dead, someone forgot to tell Tuk Smith. He flies the flag for the genre in the same way as today’s rock idols have. It’s only fitting he open for some of them – Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard and Joan Jett will introduce Tuk Smith &The Restless Hearts via their upcoming stadium tour.
After cutting his teeth, among many other things, for nine years as the frontman for the Atlanta rock band Biters, Tuk’s solo debut sees him further expanding the reaches of his musical vision into an album that unifies multiple musical styles. Tuk’s debut album, Lookin’ for Love, Ready for War, showcases the versatility of his songwriting. From instantly infectious anthems to intricately arranged rockers and Americana-tinged ballads- the album favors dedication over debauchery.
Tuk produced and wrote the video, of which he explains “I think when people first hear the song they might not get its meaning right away. I wanted to create a narrative in the video that helped complement the lyrics. Having full creative vision as an artist is as rewarding as it is daunting. If something doesn’t pan out right, there is no one to blame but yourself, but it’s the best feeling when your vision becomes reality. I had so many close friends and family act, be extras, and work on videos with me. I’m so lucky to have such a pool of talent and characters to pull from.”
Tickets go on sale to the general public tomorrow, January 17th, for what is known as the biggest concert event of 2020 which Tuk Smith & The Restless Hearts have the honor of opening.
