TUK SMITH & THE RESTLESS HEARTS ANNOUNCE NEW EP AND MINI-MOVIE VIDEO
EP “Troubled Paradise” arrives 16th October via Gypsy Rose Records
Southern-born rock renegade Tuk Smith and his band The Restless Hearts are back with the announcement of their new EP, Troubled Paradise, out 16th October 2025 on Gypsy Rose Records. Alongside the news, they’ve unleashed the EP’s title track, accompanied by a dramatic mini-movie music video that captures a classic teenage love story spinning out of control.

Big Hooks, Real Emotion
“‘Troubled Paradise’ sets the tone for an upcoming four-song EP that plays out like a movie,” says Smith. “Big guitars, big hooks, and the thrill of chasing something bigger.”
It’s the kind of widescreen rock ‘n’ roll statement that could only come from someone like Tuk Smith — a punk-rooted road warrior from rural Georgia who’s tasted the highs and lows of the music business. Now operating independently from Nashville through his Gypsy Rose Records imprint, Smith channels those experiences into something raw, authentic, and ultimately hopeful.
The Tracklist
- Troubled Paradise
- Runnin’ With The Wild Ones
- Sadie Mae
- Love Don’t Live Here Anymore

Each track promises a blend of classic energy and sharp modern perspective — a rock revival not bound by nostalgia but driven by passion and precision.
