Tucker Wetmore is heating up the country music charts! With a new album out now featuring the hit single “Brunette,” the singer-songwriter is ready to make a splash this summer.
Ahead of his nationwide tour kicking off in a week, Wetmore exclusively chatted with Luxury Handbag Shopping about his music career and personal life. He also shared some of his everyday essentials while on the road, from blue jeans to beef jerky. Whether you’re shopping for Father’s Day or just want to channel your inner country star, check out Wetmore’s backstage staples below!
US: Tell Us about your new album!
TW: This album is a glimpse into who I am. It’s a collection of songs that tell my story. Everything on it is intentional, from the lyrics to the track listing, and captures the highs, heartbreaks and lessons I’ve learned over 25 years. It’s a mix of relationships and self-reflection. This past year has been a whirlwind, and I feel like people haven’t really gotten to know me yet. What Not To is my first real chance at scratching the surface on who I am, and I hope everyone can find a bit of themselves in my story.
US: What are you most looking forward to with your summer tour?
TW: I’m beyond pumped to hit the road with Thomas Rhett. He’s someone I’ve looked up to for a long time. Not only is he an incredible artist, he’s a genuinely good dude. Every time we talk, he’s kind, caring and just real. I can’t wait to soak up everything I can from him. He’s the kind of guy who balances it all —family, music, creativity and life on the road. If I can be half the man he is one day, whether it’s in business or with family, I’ll be doing something right. I’m also fired up to cross off some bucket list venues like Fenway Park with my band and crew, and you know we’ll be celebrating with PATRÓN EL ALTO Minis. It’s gonna be a time!
US: Any luck finding that “brown-eyed, 5’5 north side of the Mason-Dixon line”?
TW: Still on the hunt, but I’ve got a good feeling! I’m hitting 40+ cities on tour this summer, so I’ve got my eyes peeled…Gotta be getting close by now!
What To With Wetmore
PATRÓN EL ALTO
TW: Making my Stagecoach debut on my album release day was hands down one of the best days of my life, and having PATRÓN EL ALTO there to celebrate such big moments made it even more special. I got to do a toast with my crew backstage and I even wore a PATRÓN bootstrap with my EL ALTO mini in it so I could have a sip whenever I wanted. If I’m on the road, PATRÓN is coming with me.
Wrangler Jeans
TW: I’m a Wrangler guy through and through. They’re comfortable, durable and fit just right. The ‘cowboy cut’ works great for everything from everyday wear to the stage.
Premier Chocolate Protein Shakes
TW: Gotta keep my energy up, so these shakes are great when I don’t have time for a full meal. I make sure my fridge on the bus stays stocked with the chocolate flavor.
Chomps Beef Jerky
TW: When I need a quick snack, these are my go-to. Tasty and easy to throw on the bus.
Embry Outdoors Hat
TW: I never hit the road without at least 20 ball caps. I’ve been wearing Embry Outdoors since the beginning.
Dan Post Ostrich Cowboy Boots
TW: I’ve got boots of all kinds, but Dan Post, Lucchese, Cody James and Tony Lama are a few I’ve been reaching for the most. I always pack a handful of pairs because you never know what we’ll be getting into.
Ray-Ban Polarized Square Sunglasses
TW: We’re out in the sun a lot on tour, so I always keep a pair of Ray-Bans or Costas handy.
Xbox Series X 1TB SSD Console
TW: When we’ve got a long drive ahead of us or downtime before shows, Xbox keeps me and the guys entertained. It’s a great way to unwind and get a little competitive.
Build-A-Bear
TW: A 13-year-old fan of mine, Sophia, made me a Build-A-Bear version of myself named Tick. It’s been a bit of a tour mascot and comes with us everywhere. It’s a little reminder of the fans that got us here.
