In 2019, the 61-year-old Texas native released the watershed albumWhile Im Livin, produced byBrandi CarlileandShooter Jennings.
With this quartet of nods, Tuckers overall Grammy nomination score stands at 14 nods and zero wins.
Its all a dream.

Ive never been nominated for four at one time.
Two was my limit, so thats one thing, but to be nominated for the song I wrote?
Thats the cherry on top of all the cakes.
I have absolutely no vision of me even taking home that award.
But I feel like Ive won so much already.
When your producers Shooter Jennings and Brandi Carlile proposed making this album, you were hesitant.
I think it was predestined.
I was just trying to do the best I could at the moment.
And I, of course, never think its good enough.
And Brandi said, This is not what this records about.
Its about your voice and all the flaws and the greatness about it, so its real.
But I dont have an answer for that.
I just know it worked.
It took her a while, too, maybe three days.
I just was adamant.
I didnt think I could ever bring anything more to that song.
(Laughs)Que sera sera, the futures not ours to see.
It certainly worked out for the best for me.
Do you feel a responsibility to offer them advice?Well, Im very honored to be asked.
I cant find the words for it really.
Im very proud of that.
Ive done a lot of stuff.
Id like to do so many things and different kinds of music.
While you never stopped touring, this feels like a comeback.
My boyfriend had to rub my neck for about 30 minutes!
Its hard to absorb because its a whirlwind, but I do feel the goodwill.
I feel it so strong when I walk on the stage.
I think myself is good enough.
