"Is it possible to take American roots music (country blues, folk, union organizing songs) and add a contemporary rock element for an evolutionary punch, yet still remain true to the original intent and intense passions? The answer was no until the formation of L.A.s own Los Duggans..."
- Robert Larson, KUCI BIOGRAPHY
"a Captain Beefheart-style neutron barn dance"
- LA CITY BEAT
Have your lighters ready alongside your raised fists. Los Duggans is the fiercest quartet this side of the Mississippi. They first came of notice at the Sundance film festival, where they accompanied the controversial live performance "Proving Ground.-- A piece that Village Voice called --one of the only Sundance products that wasn't for sale."
This is music aimed squarely at your belly. Mixing genres like a marinade, they play their own brand of Appalachian/ metal/ blues/ punk...distorted guitars raging with banjo, gut bucket beating along with a modern drum kit.
Los Duggans have opened for such greats as Bob Log III, Joe Buck Yourself Unknown Hinson, and John Doe. In 2007, they released their debut album, Calvary - Ten raucous songs of pure LA Death Folk.
