A Moe Tucker se la conoce como esa pequeña baterista de la Velvet Underground que, provista de una sencilla batería de dos timbales y sin platillos, tocaba de pie. Después de la disolución de la banda colaboró puntualmente con sus ex-compañeros de banda, Lou Reed y John Cale, además de aparecer como invitada en otras grabaciones. Editó un puñado de álbumes en solitario, de los que se puede destacar 'Life in Exile After Abdication' (1989), donde participaron algunos de los Sonic Youth, o 'I Spent a Week There The Other Night' de 1991. Ya retirada de la música, ha sido controvertida su ligazón tardía con movimientos políticos ultraconservadores.
