About the Event

I was very young when I realized that writing songs was the ultimate path to artistic freedom and a possible career. Over the years, I’ve written a lot of songs, in many different styles, from many genres. I’ve now been given the exciting opportunity to place them in the hands of some of today’s best and brightest. With the help of The Blue Note I will be putting together an overview of my work over the last 40 years and looking forward. I will be joined by the stellar cast of Keyon Harrold on trumpet, James Francies on keys, Jermaine Paul on bass and Blaque Dynamite on drums.

About Duck: Duck was formed in Raleigh, NC. As the word spread about this funky, soulful, bluesy band, those jam sessions transferred into writing original music. Duck found their groove both performing and writing originals with a solid assembly of talent: Donnie Tyree on vocals, Mike Swartz on guitar, Chuck Rhew on keys, Chris Holloway on bass and Fred Dees on drums and electric washboard. Opening for talent like Neal Francis and Daniel Donato, and releasing their inaugural EP, MOVES, the band has solidified a loyal fanbase throughout North Carolina.
