NEW RELEASE
"Young Girl: Recorded at Electric Lady Studios", the latest single off of Duke and the Drivers' upcoming retrospective "Showtime"
Tracked and produced by the legendary Eddie Kramer at @electricladystudios in the 1970's, this new single has been freshly remastered and ready for all of your summer playlists.
THE BAND
Blueblood young men turned musicians, this aggregation got together sometime in 1973 jamming on obscure rhythm & blues titles for fun and somehow it clicked. The name Duke & the Drivers evolved out of one of their myriad parties where they played for friends and consumed a cocktail called an Orange Driver, grain alcohol vodka and some orange drink. When people asked the name of the band, it was up to the harmonica-playing saxophonist who doubled as comedian, Rhinestone Mudflaps (birth name Ando Hixson), to say "Duke's not here." When people asked where Duke was, they got the standard reply: "Out drinking the orange drivers," and thus the name Duke & the Drivers was born.
