“It’s an accidental love child,” says Nashville-based
singer-songwriter Kate Tucker of Little Reader, her new and unexpected
pop music collaboration with Los Angeles-based songwriter and guitarist, Ross Flournoy, late of Merge Records bands The Broken West and Apex Manor. The duo’s debut album The
Big Score (out May 19th)
was produced by Mark Watrous of The Shins.
The music video for the first Little Reader single “Speed
of Light,” featuring the life-affirming dance moves of visual artist Shan Turner-Carroll, is streaming now
via Team
Coco or YouTube now. The
song is also available today via the usual streaming providers.
In addition to working on their own projects, Tucker and Flournoy have both found success writing for others in recent
years. If you’ve watched Jake Tapper’s
CNN show, then you’ve heard Flournoy’s theme music, and Tucker has found herself on stage at
the Sundance Film Festival for her
work in film scoring and soundtracks. Between the two of them, dozens of
television shows have used Tucker
and Flournoy’s songs.
So, when these two met for the first time, in the
hills over Los Angeles, it was merely to try writing together at the request of
their publisher Rough Trade, or as Tucker jokes, “It was basically as
blind a date as a co-write can be.” But, as we now know, the pair ultimately
decided to take it all the way, and soon, Flournoy
was in Nashville recording with Kate and her mates.
From The Big Score’s opener and first
single “Speed of Light,” listeners
will feel like they are taken into a John
Hughes film, namely “Pretty In
Pink,” specifically right into Trax, the record store where Molly Ringwald’s “Andie” worked, and
where Annie Potts asked for
“applause, applause, applause!”
It’s lighthearted fun for those who have fought-for
perspective on what’s lighthearted and/or fun. Namely, it can take some
heartbreak – a “heavy heart” – to know what feeling lighthearted even is.
The Big Score by Little Reader arrives May 19th, preceded by the single
and music video “Speed of Light.” Little Reader is available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom at Fanatic for more information.
