Duke Garwood is London’s master bluesman. Working with Mark Lanegan and recently the Master Musicians of Jajouka, and supporting the likes of Seasick Steve, Duke’s talents are slowly coming the fore. Dreamboastsafari (2011) is Duke Garwood’s latest album and the follow up to 2009’s The Sand That Falls, both released on Fire Records. More focussed than his last outings, Dreamboatsafari is Duke at his best. Rippling bronze blues tones unravel into ribbons of song amidst the dark, scary and uncovered ground that Duke never fears to tread.
