Role Model releases third studio album ‘Chuck Timely & The Hourglass’

Musician Tucker Pillsbury, performing under the name Role Model, has released his third studio album, ‘Chuck Timely & The Hourglass’. The project, which Pillsbury wrote and produced alongside Mason Stoops and Taylor Mackall, explores themes of love and singleness through a sound that blends contemporary pop with heartland rock influences reminiscent of artists like Bruce Springsteen and Jackson Browne.

Pillsbury noted in a recent interview that while he enjoys making pop music, he does not aim to pursue traditional pop stardom. The album features contributions from his girlfriend, Dakota Johnson. Additionally, Pillsbury discussed his upcoming film debut in Lena Dunham’s ‘Good Sex’, where he will act alongside Natalie Portman.

To support the release, the ‘CHUCK ON TOUR’ will begin in the United States on September 9, 2026, in Bend, Oregon, featuring Samia as a guest artist. The North American leg includes stops in New York, Nashville, and Los Angeles, concluding in Berkeley on October 18. A European tour is scheduled to commence in Berlin on February 11, 2027, with Keni Titus as a guest artist.
