WHAT IT IS: With writing, guitar and drum credits on every one of his songs, singer/songwriter Tucker Beathard proves his sense of wordplay, melody and story is second to none. He stands as the first country artist to release a debut double album, and the pivotal first installment, Nobody’s Everything, was released at the end of last year. Beathard first turned heads in 2016 with his Top 5 anthem, “Rock On,” and went on to build a following by hitting the road. As an artist, he’s not afraid to strip things back to the root. As a writer, he’s willing to press a song for maximum meaning. As a performer, playing show after show, he’s fearless.
