Tucker Zimmerman is probably one of the best-kept secrets of folk music - a giant of the genre known only to those who are truly initiated. His biggest fans included David Bowie and Tony Visconti. Unfortunately, Zimmerman never achieved worldwide fame, and he released music in the shadow of the greats. Nevertheless, he achieved a certain cult status, especially in music circles. The US band Big Thief describes him as one of their greatest role models, which is why the band contacted him to encourage him to record a new album together. The result is "Dance Of Love", which will be released on October 11th on 4AD, was written by Zimmerman and recorded and produced by Big Thief. "It was an incredible honor to make a record with him," says Big Thief. "We believe in this music with all our hearts and hope that it will be fun." With "Dance Of Love", Tucker Zimmerman shows himself to be a master of his craft and delivers an impressive late work.
