THE DUHKS
View
The Duhks Website
The Duhks are at the forefront of a movement dubbed
Neo-Traditionalism. With a sound that can only be described
as folk/punk/rock/old-time/soul/salsa fusion, this young band
of high energy, 20-somethings have been winning staunch support
from all walks of life. Their unique sound has also earned
them a Grammy Award nomination, one Juno Award plus 2 nominations.
Fiery fiddle, exquisite percussion, high end guitar and banjo
meld with one of the absolutely best female voices in the
business, they deliver - If you enjoyed The Mammals, the Duhks
too, will only add to your musical journey.
Clapped-out cars, ragged arse suitcases, broken dollars, ripped-up
old dresses, fallen prayers, dirty wings, lonely roads, long-tongued
lies, sticks and stones and bags of bones, stone angels and
dreams, air thick with love, kisses on the breeze, diamonds
in the sun - Yearlings songs are populated by all the above
and more. Yearlings songs are heartfelt and precious things.

The Yearlings Website
The Yearlings are Adelaide couple Robyn Chalklen and
Chris Parkinson join the ranks of the great duos of country/folk/acoustic
music with their latest album Wind Already Blown - Robyn's
beautifully ethereal and mysterious songs the perfect counterpoint
to Chris's earthy and warm compositions, both artists in total
understanding of, and in harmony with each other. It's a timeless
gem of a record and a great example that the awareness and
understanding of tradition can create something new, vital,
and of great beauty while helping to keep that tradition alive
and fresh.
