Tucker's Blues

What co-owner diannetucker likes most about providing ongoing blues entertainment is how varied and exciting blues music is. Though many young or inexperienced blues fans may associate the music only with mournful songs of despair, Tucker likes the fact that blues musicians have created a deep reservoir of great songs, many of them being songs of celebration and joy. "The blues can be some of the best party music," Tucker maintains. Tuckers' Blues first show, titled Royal Blues ran for five weekend nights and profiled the royal figures of the blues: those iconic blues figures who wore royal titles, like queen or king of the blues, mother and father of the blues, etc. Beginning in late October, Tucker began presenting Blues Thrillers. Those blue songs that make you wave your arm in the air, holler loud or jump up dancing are the kinds of songs these club owners label as ‘thrillers.'

From the very first night, Tuckers' Blues patrons have raved on the unique entertainment, exceptional service and ideal location. If you are a blues fan in the Dallas area, Tuckers' Blues promises to provide blues entertainment like no where else in town. As part of its ongoing commitment to honoring blues artists, Tuckers will select and honor a local living blues legend. The first honoree is Dallas area blues man Lucky Peterson. Lucky has not only coached local musicians in rehearsal for Tuckers' blues shows, in support of musical arranger Brent Nance, Lucky has performed on the main stage more than a dozen times since this club has opened. Peterson is just back from a two-week international engagement, including performances in Paris and Moscow. "When Lucky is in the house, an already wonderful show becomes dazzling," says co-owner Wanda Tucker.
