Hailing from Belfast with a sound that is self-confessed “hobo-chic”, Duke Special is once heard, never forgotten. Following four stellar live dates in London recently, the acclaimed singer/songwriter releases the lusciously eccentric new single ‘Last Night I Nearly Died (But I Woke Up Just In Time) on V2, October 16th.
"I want to capture something dusty and beautiful on record, something that sounds like Christmas smoking through an old wooden radio." says Duke, and the new single is exactly that. Produced by Paul Wilkinson and Dave Lynch - who worked on Duke’s previous releases – it also features additional production by Andy Green, whose work includes The Feeling, Keane and KT Tunstall.
