Adrian Duke is a piano player/singer/songwriter steeped deeply in the New Orleans blues tradition.   He grew up as a multi-instrumentalist but soon, after studying jazz piano at VCU in Richmond, discovered the New Orleans musical tradition of Professor Longhair, James Booker & Dr. John, that Duke would make the foundation of his sound as a piano player.   And once you add to that a voice that is infused with a startling imprint of the early Atlantic sides of Ray Charles, what you get just begins to describe what’s in Duke’s bag as a performer and composer.  He spends a good part of his time on the road performing in a variety of musical settings and genres, always unavoidably with a strong New Orleans flavor.  But Duke has found time to produce and record six of his own albums in the past fifteen years including his recent self titled EP. Though he lived in the triangle area for 10 years, he now resides in Charlottesville VA
