An Alabama native and Auburn University alumni (BFA Theatre Performance), Bucky has numerous national theatrical credits and his reputation as a “gutsy rock and roll singer with incredible vocal range” has garnered critical praise in such publications as, The Washington Post and USA Today. He has shared the concert stage with some of the greats including Andy Williams, Glen Campbell, The Beach Boys (with Mike Love), The Temptations (with Otis Williams), Tony Orlando, Paul Shaffer, Michael McDonald, Jonathan Cain (Journey), BB King and many more.
As a writer/producer, Bucky created an original children’s rock and roll musical titled, Rock U Mentally, which had an incredible run at Dick Clark’s American Bandstand Theatre in Branson, MO. Most recently, he co-wrote and produced 14 original songs for an exciting new musical, “Mike and Mindy’s Wild Weekend Jam”, which made its Off-Broadway debut at the historic Players Theatre in New York City on Nov 4, 2021 for 12 consecutive sold out shows and received a wonderful review in the acclaimed theatrical news website, Broadway World. The show is set to go back to NYC for two industry reads at Open Jar Studios this summer!
In addition to his endeavors on stage, Bucky has been a vocal instructor for over 15 years and has created his own vocal method, “PREP Vocals” (Pitch/Range/Endurance/Power) with vocalists from all over the world seeking out his instruction.
