Role Model sets August 7 for Chuck Timely & The Hourglass

Role model has set a timeline for the next phase of his rollout, with third studio album Chuck Timely & The Hourglass due August 7. The first single, High Hopes 3000, arrives June 3 at 9 AM, giving listeners a clear runway before the album drops.

Tucker’s August 7 plan

Tucker posted to socials, “My third album, Chuck Timely & The Hourglass, is out August 7th.” He also set the single release in motion with, “The first single, High Hopes 3000, is out June 3rd at 9 am. oooh i can’t wait, you must pre-order now.”

Fans can pre-order signed CD and vinyl variants on Tucker’s official website, and new merch pieces tied to this era are already live in the store. For a project built around a third-album launch, that means the business side of the rollout is open before the first song arrives, not after it.

From streaming staples to larger rooms

During Role Model’s breakout period, songs like tired of being sad and i guess i’m just a person became streaming staples. His live shows also grew from small clubs to larger venues, which gives this album cycle a more established audience base than the one that surrounded his earlier releases.

That growth fits the moody, nostalgic, grounded-in-real-emotion approach that helped define this stretch of his career. The practical next step is simple: the single lands June 3 at 9 AM, and anyone who wants the signed CD or vinyl has already been given the order window.

June 3 and August 7

The June 3 release is the immediate test for the new era, while August 7 is the date that turns the announcement into a full album release. Role Model has already paired the music with merch and pre-orders, so the rollout is moving as a package rather than waiting for the single to do all the work.
