Duhks - Beyond the Blue [CD]

2014 release from the Canadian Folk band. On BEYOND THE BLUE The Duhks are in the best form of their 13 year career. Rejuvenated by a two year hiatus and energized by the return of vocalist Jessee Havey and the addition of new members, fiddler Rosie Newton, drummer/percussionist Kevin Garcia, and guitarist/bouzouki player Colin Savoie-Levac, The Duhks founder Leonard Podolak found an amazing pallet of inspiration for the new project. Musically, the new project is reminiscent of 2006's Grammy-nominated MIGRATIONS, but with a sound that is even more dense and grittier than 2008's FAST PACED WORLD. Taken as a whole, BEYOND THE BLUE represents a group of musicians at the peak of their powers, the music shaped by their collective experience of years on the road and driven by the sheer joy and inspiration that comes from reuniting and rediscovering that magic that drew them together in the first place.
