Hello Flock!

Checking in to give you a quick update on all the exciting things that have been going on with us...

Today marks a very exciting day for us, as it is the official release of our new album Fast Paced World! This marks our fourth release, but the first with our newest additions Sarah and Christian Dugas. Since they joined us, the band has evolved into a new sound and a new direction. We are so proud of this album and can't wait for you all to hear it! You can pick up a copy on our newly redesigned website www.duhks.com.

After a great run at the Canadian Folk Festivals - Calgary, Canmore, Edmonton & Ottawa - we were able to make some amazing new friends and catch up with some old ones. It was wonderful to see all of you who came out - hope you had as good a time as we did!

We are off to Europe to play Shrewsbury Folk Festival in the UK and then Tonder Festival in Denmark. After that we return to the US to make our way from coast to coast once again. Check out our tour dates to see when we'll be in your area:

We can almost always use grassroots volunteers for these shows - if you'd like to help get the word out by putting up some posters, and maybe helping us sell merch after the concert, we would be happy to put you on the guest list for the show (we can't really do this for festivals, only for "club" shows). If you're interested, give an email to ryanb@sugarhillrecords.com and he'll take care of you!



Thanks again for all of your continued support. Our life on the road wouldn't be the same without you.

See you soon!
