In 2003, with the addition of Darren Nuttall and Tim Day, the Tucker B's released 'Bish Bosh II: The Bosh Bosh' through Quietly Suburban Records. The band toured the album extensively throughout Australia. This schedule took its toll, with Tim Day leaving the band, to be replaced by Matthew Maguire (ex-Adam Said Galore).
In 2005 the band relocated to Sydney and released their fourth studio album, 'Chubby', which spawned a hit single with "The Turning" on high rotation on Triple J and "Bullets" not far behind. In 2007, Matt Blackman (ex-Purplene, Charge Group, Palace of Fire) took up the role of drummer for the band (the eighth drummer the band had). In 2009 they released their last album, 'Nightmares in the Key of (((((Wow)))))', which was produced by Burke Reid (The Mess Hall, The Drones) and features contributions from Chris Ross (Wolfmother, Palace of Fire).
The Tucker B's had played many shows in Perth supporting artists including Bluetile Lounge, Molasses, O!, Squadcar 9x, Adam Said Galore, Jon Spencer and his Blues Explosion, Trans Am, and in the Eastern States supporting Peabody, Art of Fighting, Dappled Cities Fly, and the Mountain Goats and Wolfmother amongst others. The Tucker B's also played at the South By Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, complete with an extensive tour of the United States. This was followed in 2006 by a national tour supporting Wolfmother. In 2007 The Tucker B's performed at the Sydney leg of the Big Day Out and at Homebake.
