Role Model is rolling out a new era with the announcement of his third studio album, “Chuck Timely & The Hourglass,” set for release on August 7. The first single, “High Hopes 3000,” will land on June 3 at 9 AM, giving fans their first new music from the project after months of teasing.
Tucker posted on social media that his third album is coming August 7 and that “High Hopes 3000” arrives June 3 at 9 am, adding that fans should pre-order now. Signed CD and vinyl variants are available on his official website, and new merch tied to the era is already live in the store.
The release builds on a successful run that turned Role Model into a bigger live draw. Songs like “tired of being sad” and “i guess i’m just a person” became streaming staples, and his shows moved from small clubs into larger venues as the recorded success piled up.
That momentum is what makes this rollout matter now. Rather than waiting for the album to speak for itself, Tucker is pairing the announcement with a single, merch and physical pre-orders, signaling a full launch rather than a soft reveal. The strategy is simple: the new era is already open, and the next measurable test comes when “High Hopes 3000” drops on June 3 at 9 AM.
For fans, the question is not whether Role Model has a new project coming. He does. The real answer is whether “Chuck Timely & The Hourglass” can push past the breakout phase and define the next stretch of his career when it arrives on August 7.
