Description:
Skinny White Chick: the indomitable S. J. Tucker + current backup on congas provided by Jay "Trainwreck" Timbs. "At first glance, Memphis singer-songwriter S. J. Tucker (aka Skinny White Chick), with her long brown hair and petite frame, looks like a nice, shy girl—the type of girl who lives in your apartment complex and only quietly mumbles hello when you run into her in the parking lot. But when she straps on her acoustic guitar and opens her mouth to sing, you can see her almost morph into a magical fairy creature with a voice so bold she demands the attention of all the animals in the forest. Oft-compared to Tori Amos, Ani Difranco, and Joni Mitchell, Tucker's music is a mix of haunting lyrics and folksy guitar. But don't be fooled. S. J.'s no lightweight, skinny white chick though she may be. She can rock with the best of them, and she won't hesitate to surprise you by not holding back." -Bianca Phillips, The Memphis Flyer
