Smith,Tuk & The Restless Hearts - Troubled Paradise (Tour Edition) - 12-INCH SINGLE [12 inch Vinyl Single]

Tuk Smith is the kind of rock 'n' roll ambassador you didn't think existed anymore. Punk maverick from rural Georgia, Biters frontman, producer and solo artist, he's seen the best and worst of a music industry in constant flux. By turns it's left him critically acclaimed, poised for stadiums, dropped, burned out, back in the game and beloved by those for whom rock is still everything. Now based in Nashville, and with his own tag Gypsy Rose Records, he creates from a more real place than most. InchI want to do something that means something to people,Inch Tuk says, Inchbecause a lot of S**t nowadays is so disposable and so plastic. I just don't connect with that. I'd like to do things that impact people positively. It's a weird time on the planet, so to have songs about hope, but not be cheesy about it, it's something I think we need with songwriting. That's the kind of music I want to hear.Inch Again, there's that dichotomy he speaks of. InchRock 'n' roll is essentially the illusion of not giving a F**k, right? Like, you know Axl Rose was doing sit-ups and jump rope, and Paul Stanley was on a cardio machine, and they come out and act like it just happens. The point is I sit at that piano many hours, working on this stuff.Inch Album Tracks 1. Troubled Paradise 2. Runnin' with the Wild Ones 3. Sadie Mae 4. Love Don't Live Here Anymore
