Meet Duffy!
Hi Friends! Meet Duffy! Duffy joined our team this Fall after itching to get back into a world where he's surrounded by music. Duffy began his musical journey at the age of 14. He and his friends decided the best way to meet girls would be to form a band and play an instrument! And so Duffy picked up the bass guitar. He and his band have been together ever since. They gigged first at their high school dances, and have played many other venues to this day. Duffy loves music and doesn't know what he'd do without it. Welcome to the A&G crew, Duffy!
