Avery Tucker

Avery Tucker is a singer-songwriter and musician who first gained recognition as one half of the indie duo Girlpool, formed with Harmony Tividad in 2013. Girlpool made five albums over nearly a decade, blending punk, indie-pop, and later more experimental sounds while touring extensively. In 2018, Avery came out as transgender, which marked a significant personal milestone during their time with the band. In 2022, Avery embarked on a solo career, stepping into the spotlight with their debut solo album *Paw*, which is set for release in October 2025. Their recent singles like "Malibu" and "Like I'm Young" showcase an intimate, emotionally nuanced style that explores themes of self-reflection and relationships.

Avery’s music has evolved from the raw, minimalist aesthetic of early Girlpool towards a more textured, alternative sound in their solo work. They describe songs like "Malibu" as reflecting the complex dynamics of being a mirror to someone else and the challenges of truly witnessing and being witnessed in relationships. Their solo work continues to blend heartfelt lyrics with a fresh, modern take on indie music, demonstrating Avery’s growth as a solo artist while honoring the deeply personal songwriting that first earned them acclaim.
