Tanya Tucker evacuates Malibu home due to area fires
Monday, October 22, 2007 – Wildfires in California caused Tanya Tucker to have her teenage daughter evacuate their home in Malibu, one of the areas worst hit by the fires.
Tucker, who is currently in Las Vegas, said in a statement released late Sunday night, "My 18-year-old daughter, Presley, had to leave the house with our four dogs. We woke up in horror this morning. It was very chaotic."
Soon after Presley was evacuated, fire helicopters doused the residence with water to help keep the fire from spreading. "All my stage clothing, boots, belts and wardrobe is in that house. I have so much memorabilia since I just moved from Nashville to Malibu," said Tucker.
Fires have hit southern California due to a drought.

The album, the follow-up to 2019's "While I'm Livin'," which won the GRAMMY for Best Country Album, opens with the distinctive voice of Billy Joe Shaver singing about Tucker on "Tanya," and ends with the rodeo song "When The Rodeo Is Over (Where Do the Cowboys Go?)." It's still a little ...
It feels a little strange evaluating a live Tanya Tucker album now, as she's an aging country singer that had her first hit with "Delta Dawn" way back in 1972 at the tender age of 13. She's well past 13 now, and with the help of Brandi Carlile and Shooter Jennings (who both produced her 'comeback album,' "While I'm Livin'"), is experiencing a welcome career resurgence. This live album was recorded at The Troubadour, and Tucker jokes that it's ...
It's been 17 years since we've had a new album from Tanya Tucker, so it's a real pleasure to hear her clear throaty vocals deliver these songs with her characteristic raw emotion. Tucker knows how to get into a song and make it her own, and she demonstrates her ability to turn phrases on this set of songs. Every song is a gem, and every song might be describing some aspect of her own life. Brandi Carlile and Shooter Jennings produced the album, and Jennings played piano almost every ...
