Katie Tucker
Let me introduce myself: I’m Katie Tucker, and I own Sharp Edges Records.
I’ve been vocal producing, coaching, and writing music for nearly a decade. One of the songs I wrote even went Double-Platinum. But that success didn’t come without hardship, including situations I never should have had to go through in the first place. Unfortunately, I know what it feels like to walk into a session and not feel safe. That’s why I built the kind of studio my younger self didn’t have. Recording studios should be places where everyone feels at ease, inspired, and protected. I’m here to be a part of that change.
If you’re looking to create in a space designed with your safety in mind, book a session with us. Together, we can make the music industry a safer place, one session at a time.
