Duke Robillard
blues
Guitarist. Bandleader. Songwriter. Singer. Producer. Session
musician. And a one-man cheering section for the blues, in all its
forms and permutations. Robillard is still on the road, still playing
as many as 250 dates a year. And still proving, night after night, that
his true talent is bringing people out to hear the music, appreciate
the show, and dance to the blues. He has found time to share studio
gigs with Bob Dylan (the Daniel Lanois-produced Time Out of Mind
sessions), Ruth Brown, the late Johnny Adams, John Hammond, Pinetop
Perkins, and Ronnie Earl, among many others. Duke Robillard is a man in
command of a full range of creative talents — unique in the
blues, and rare in the music industry as a whole. He is, in fact, a
complete artist at the height of his power.
Duke is also up for two awards at the Blues Music Awards in Memphis in
May, they include:
Instrumentalist - Guitar

Album of the Year - Traditional Blues
