Veteran promoter Scott Tucker joins The Raad Life Podcast to dive deep into the power of music, memory, and reinvention. In this episode, we explore why 80s music continues to resonate across generations—from Gen X nostalgia to Gen Z rediscovery—and how it has transformed from concert stages to cultural touchstones.
Scott shares his journey in the music industry, from his early days as a DJ and promoter to curating legendary concerts and festivals. Now, he’s the mastermind behind the 80s Rewind Festival in Huntington Beach, bringing together iconic alternative bands that defined an era.
Host Raad Ghantous also reflects on midlife reinvention, turning 60, and why music remains a universal language that connects generations, heals memories, and creates legacies. Whether you grew up blasting cassette tapes, experienced the rise of MTV, or are discovering 80s bands for the first time, this conversation will strike a chord.
Tune in for stories of resilience, the magic of live shows, and why the 80s never left—they just keep evolving.
