Kent
Duchaine's musical nomadic life started over thirty years ago in Minnesota
where he played with Kim Wilson before Wilson moved to Texas to form the
Fabulous Thunderbirds. Kent honed his guitar skills playing with Lazy Bill
Lucas, Boogie Woogie Red, Luther Tucker, Big Walter Horton, Hubert Sumlin,
Eddie Burns and Margie Evans. In the early 1990's he spent three years
traveling and playing with the legendary bluesman Johnny Shines. Duchaine's
guitar playing is rooted in the styles of Robert Johnson, Lightning Hopkins,
T-Bone Walker, Muddy Waters, Bukka White and Elmore James. He has a ferociously
wild slide technique that exudes a frenzied power and he can switch gears in
the wink of an eye to play some
beautiful acoustic melodies.
