Your name:
Dan Tucker.
Where are you from?
Name of band:
Soapbox Army.

How would you describe yourselves?
Rock with some atmospheric and electronic moments.
Constantly evolving.

Jeff Buckley, dredg, Radiohead, The Beatles, Led
Zeppelin. Although we’ve been compared to bands like Foo Fighters, The
Gaslight Anthem, Silverchair, The Replacements.
What do you hope to achieve in music?
Most importantly, to create work that we’re consistently
proud of and keep striving for more. To make a living playing music and
perhaps become a household name someday.
What has been the highlight of your career so far, and
why?
I think we’re still waiting for that one true
“highlight.” So far, it’s been the fact that we’ve recorded two well-received albums and
been able to play at some really prestigious venues around NYC.
And what’s the moment you want to forget?
Personally, having to cut a show short because I lost my
voice. Not my proudest moment.
If you could choose just one of your songs to represent
your music, what would it be and why?
The Tower. I think it’s a good representation of what we
do best – unconventional melodies that are still accessible and
catchy.
Where can we listen to it?
Where can we find out more about your music?
Anything else you’d like to say about your band that I
forgot to ask?
Right now, we’re working on a video for a song from our
latest album, ‘Reactor,’ as well as songs for a new EP. Hope to
have some new tunes out in the world by late 2013.
We recently became a trio. Looking to give Rush, The
Police, and The Fat Boys a run for their money.
