Tuck released her second EP, So in Love, in October 2014. She made her New York City debut at Joe's Pub in January 2015.[5] Then in March 2015 she released her third EP, Delancey Street, which featured musicians Eric Harland on drums and Joe Sanders on bass.
Tuck released her debut album, Junk, on CD, LP, and digital download on May 4, 2018. It is a mix of cover songs and original material. It was produced by Larry Klein, mixed by Tim Palmer, and published on the Sony Music record label.[1]
