Old Duke's is a 5 track 'EP' recorded using one microphone, live, in Huntington, West Virginia. These recordings are to serve as an archive for the unique sound of the particular banjo used, which was at one time owned by my great-uncle, Edgar 'Duke' Pullins. All hardware, from strings to friction tuners, are as they were when Duke would play it in rural Appalachia over these last 30 years.
