jeremy porter
& the tucos
Jeremy Porter & The Tucos are a
rock and roll band from Detroit,
Michigan. They sound like guitars
and whiskey, hooks and heartache,
energy and passion. You’ll find
everything from Cheap Trick to
Gram Parsons, Hüsker Dü to Uncle
Tupelo, Merle Haggard to Ted
Nugent on their turntables. The
racket they make is a little bit of
each. It’s Detroit rock and roll,
even if Detroit isn’t quite ready for
it. Jeremy Porter grew up in
Marquette, a small town in
Michigan’s upper peninsula, where
he was a founding member of one
of the UP’s first punk bands – The
Regulars. He moved to Detroit and
tore through the 90s and 00s
fronting bands like SlugBug, The
OffRamps and Fidrych (as well as
a solo stint) though 2 decades of
recording and touring before
forming The Tucos in 2009. Gabriel
Doman (Hotwalls) and Patrick
O’Harris (Mike Hard Band, Sons
of the Gun) round out the trio.
