Rabbit

Matt Duke

Rykodisc

WE SAY

'Rabbit' is a compelling ballad taken from Philadelphia-based singer songwriter Matt Duke's debut album 'Kingdom Underground', released on Rykodisc next month. Duke has already enjoyed radio support from Janice Long at R2 with his forthcoming debut UK single 'The Father, The Son and The Harlot's Ghost', released February 16. Duke, a 23 year-old who writes lo-fi but radio-friendly acoustic pop, has made a debut which should find an audience on this side of the Atlantic too. A couple of UK showcases take place this week. JF London gig: Tuesday 27 January, Showcase at Soho House, W1 13:00 (RSVP to Cat Hockley)/ Wednesday 28 January, Hit Sheet/ BMI gig, Cobden Club W10 21:00
