The Duhks February 10, 2012

After a short break from the road, The Duhks are back! They are touring on the heels of a new release titled Fast Paced World (available August 2011) – produced by Nashville’s Jay Joyce (Patty Griffin, John Hiatt). The band’s fusion of traditional bluegrass, folk rock, Afro-Cuban jazz, Celtic, gospel and soul makes their music accessible and yet hard to pigeonhole, giving them creative freedom to explore the full range of roots music from around the globe. The band has been a favorite at MerleFests past, and their unique sound also earned them a Grammy Award nomination in 2006 for Best Country Vocal Performance by a Group or Duo, one Juno Award, and an Americana Music Association nomination for Best Emerging Artists.
