Born and bred in Ōtorohanga, Waikato, Triggar Happy (Regan Tucker) isn’t your average country rocker - he’s a farmer turned firebrand. After years running six farms, milking millions, and losing it all, he sold every cow, tractor, and bike to chase what really mattered - the music - and turns out he is damn good at it too! Triggar Happy has today released his single ‘Zombies’ - a track about smashing down the walls that imprison you from being who you really want to be.
Following a rapid rise to success where his two albums ‘Talk Is Cheap’ and ‘Love Loyalty Respect’ reigned in at number one the Top 20 Aotearoa Album Charts for multiple weeks, Triggar Happy also took out Impact Artist of the year at the 2025 Independent Music Awards.
‘Zombies’ will be part of a brand new deluxe album that will roll out over the first half of 2026 and is slated for completion in mid October.
His sound - a heady mix of raw alt-rock energy, bluesy swagger, and soul-tinged vocals reminiscent of Teddy Swims, Jelly Roll, and Jimmy Barnes is built on gritty and distorted riffs, backed up with lyrics that people can just relate to. He drives rhythms, and melodies that linger long after the track ends. Triggar’s music perfectly complements his magnetic, larger-than-life personality: part showman, part storyteller, part firebrand, capable of turning any room into a raucous celebration of music, life, and irrepressible character.
When asked about what he wants to portray through ‘Zombies’ and the deluxe album as a whole, Triggar Happy says “I’ve milked a lot of cows, dragged a lot of sheep, fixed a lot of tractors and seen my friends mindlessly grinding away in the factories. As much as I want the best for me, I want the best for all of the people around me going through life's struggles. That’s what Zombies is about. Wanting the best. And overall just being bloody passionate about music.”
With a passion for his craft and a story forged in sweat and redemption, Triggar Happy does things his own way - bridging country rock, outlaw energy and Kiwi DIY spirit. No trends. No labels. No algorithms. Just truth, volume, and heart.
