Surfing YouTube is a favorite pastime for me and I’m always excited when I stumble upon a new talent that causes me to take a Double Take.  In the case of Griffin Tucker, it was a full hour of watching all his YouTube videos and searching to find out more about him; and when I did, I just had to share his story with the world!  I was happy when I quickly heard from Griffin’s mom and even more delighted when she agreed to share his story with me.

Griffin Tucker is an 11-year-old emerging artist who eats, sleeps and breathes music. His mother tells me that Griffin’s love for music began at a very young age.  In fact, Griffin says that he remembers loving his still favorite band, The Beatles, when he was just 3 years old!

At age six, he taught himself to play drums by watching his Beatles DVDs and closely studying Ringo Starr.  At age eight, he took a few months of piano lessons and soon mastered that. This led to a new love, the guitar, which was followed by the bass guitar, and of course, singing.  Griffin not only can sing but exhibits a three-octave vocal range with perfect pitch.

His talents are brilliantly demonstrated in his music video, a cover from his favorite band, The Beatles.

When Sebastian was three, his parents took him to see his Aunt’s band perform.  When his Aunt Ann, a vocalist in several bands, sang the Beatles tune, “Come Together”, Sebastian was completely entranced.  He will tell you today that at that moment he knew his destiny was to be on stage.
