Brad Tucker





Canadian born singer/songwriter Brad Tucker has been writing and performing music professionally since 1996 with the release of his first studio recording "The Color of Love".

 He was first recognized nationally in 2003 with a prestigious nomination for an ECMA Award, along- side of major artists including Anne Murray, Great Big Sea, and The Rankin Family.

As his musical journey came to fruition, more nominations and awards followed. "I'm thankful for my accomplishments so far, but the greatest reward for me is seeing the hearts of my fans being touched in a positive way", say's Tucker.

He continued, “We have the power as musicians to speak to the lives of people and to me that only leaves one choice... positive verses negative". Brad is a great entertainer with real emotion in his vocal performance. His songs come from his heart and reflect his values, and the stories come from personal experiences that everyone can relate to.

Brad’s new album reflects his talent both as a singer and as a songwriter.  His entire album is the best of the best, utilizing Brad’s talents with the collaboration of some of Music City’s best songwriters, and produced by Emmy award winner Kenny Royster and Grammy nominated producer Kent Wells, both veteran producers in Nashville.

There’s a lot more music constantly turning in Tucker’s heart and mind and we expect to see him climbing the charts with his hit songs! Brad offers something for listeners of all ages.

Ajay Mathur

"Chronicling an odyssey across the highest mountains and darkest valleys of American music, 9 to 3 sounds like a love letter from Mathur to each of his favorite musicians." - The Big Takeover Magazine








“Hooked from the first track” – Gigband

“Brilliantly catchy“ – All What's Rock

"Truly a master” – Windsor Square

“His sound and amazing songwriting are as good as they can get” – AWR Magazine

 “An amazing amount of originality, creativity and rich conventional wisdom Mathur has to offer” wrote Cyrus Rhodes of IMD about India-born and Switzerland based singer-songwriter Ajay Mathur. Melissa Arditti of Windsor Square went even further to attribute Ajay as “a talented singer/songwriter who is truly a master of his craft”. Indeed Ajay’s albums come “with a fresh sound and an entertaining vibe that makes a real connection with music fans” as Michael Rand of All What's Rock precisely put it. '9 to 3' follows Ajay Mathur's previous successful releases of ‘A Matter of Time' (2011) and 'Come See Conquer' (2013) which have enjoyed excellent reviews and acknowledgements in the international media, top-rankings on internet radio playlists, chart ranking on Americana (AMA) radio charts, four award-winning singles including 'Communicate' which was a finalist in the 2011 Show Me the Music song-writing contest and 'Easy' as a finalist in the 2012 Unsigned Only Songwriting Competition and over a million fans and listeners worldwide. Janne Zawa of Indie Artists Alliance sums it up; “It is very clear that Ajay’s talents are far beyond what anyone could have imagined, and, simply put, this guy is a pure genius of his musical craft”.

 “The beauty of Mathur is Mathur himself. I believe this man feels every word he sings” wrote Jennifer Hertzler of Gigband recently about Ajay and admits “I’m hooked from the first track”. With a worldwide following and his continuous successes as an artist, Ajay’s new album ‘9 to 3’ has all the ingredients to take his career to a new level of success.
