Duane grew up old school in the LA area in the 60's. He's been through 53 years of ups and downs, which includes 9 lives and 3 x-wives to write about. His lyric writing started in a high school English class and transformed to songwriting when his daughter asked for a wedding verse. Duane found Billy Scroggs in Tuscon, Az. and they collaborated on "Love's Pure Lesson" for her march down the isle. Bill's exposure extends to his GAC music video "Hammer Down" and is on his way to your car radio.

Duane then found Stevie D down the road in Riverside, Ca and out came "'60's Man" It took Steve 3 minutes to put music and voice to Duane's lyrics because it defined them both and they became fast friends. Since January '08 they have collaborated on 25 songs. Steve is a talented musician with a strong retro influence after 30 years of music experience and he is just breaking out on his own.

Through a work associate Duane met Michael Christopher King, who is Country all the way. "Hello Jane" and Jack Daniels started their writing friendship and Mike is now forming a band to start locally in Norco, Ca. He is a gifted singer with a laugh as big as his imagination. Much more to come from him.
