Dustin is a writer, producer, and audio engineer born and raised in Louisville Kentucky. Currently signed as a producer/vocalist as part of Villebillies. 
 
Dustin started his his love with all things audio in the mid 90's. He would save up money and catch a bus to the local music store to rent drum machines and other equipment. His hobby quickly turned into something more, as he co-founded the Louisville based and nationally recognized band Villebillies in 2001. With Dustin and childhood friend BJ Young handling all of the production, the band exploded on the Louisville music scene and began catching the attention of the major record labels. In 2005 Villebillies signed with Universal Motown Records and released their debut album in 2006. After years of touring and releasing albums Dustin decided to further his production career. In 2011 he co-founded the independent record label Island Earth Music where he began to find and develop new talent. In 2013 Villebillies landed another record deal with Sony Music Entertainment. The band released "Love is Kind of Crazy" in October of 2013 peaking at #62 on the Mediabase Top 40/Pop charts. Over his years in the music business he has worked hands on with some of the biggest names in music production including Bob Ezrin(Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper) Toby Wright(Metallica, Alice in Chains, Korn) and Lewis Richards(Sublime). Dustin is also an accomplished audio engineer who has been recording professionally with Pro Tools since 2002. From vocals to drums; you name it and he can record and produce it. He does not operate with in the boundaries of a genre, he just loves creating music. Dustin has composed music for companies such as Brown Foreman, Espn, MTV, Universal Motown Records, Sony Music Entertainment, Warner Brothers and Cartoon Network

The Villebillies signature sound features a well choreographed vocal style with hard hitting rap verses, infectious hooks and soulful harmonies. Marked with beats drawn from a distinctive blend of urban and roots music, each of the three front men (Demi Demaree, Dustin “Tuck” Tucker and Derek “Child” Monyhan) bring their own technique and personality to every track. Never confined to one genre or topic, each song reflects a different experience within the greater context of the Villebillies’ story.

The group began in the early 2000s when a crew of loosely related musicians and MC’s began to collaborate, and named themselves the Villebillies, an ironic nod to their hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. By playing shows and handing out demos, the Villebillies quickly became a local sensation. The music industry began to take notice, and in 2006 the band was signed to Universal/Motown. They released their self-titled debut and went on tour, amassing small pockets of fans across the country. In 2008 the band parted ways with Universal but continued to write and perform independently, releasing several albums under their own imprint.
