About Duncan Townsend

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Listening to the sloping slur of a warped old 45 struggling its way round my dad's dusty turntable.

David Bowie, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (2012 Remaster) The Beach Boys, Pet Sounds The Beatles, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Deluxe Edition) 2017 Remix & Remaster An immersive blend of storytelling and music. Songwriting at its best. A epic and adventurous journey of memorable melodies, characters and images. Timeless. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special.

Performing with Nena in the Barclays Arena in Hamburg to a full house and 6 million television viewers, playing a small show for His Holiness the Dalai Lama, jamming rock'n'roll with Peter Maffay and a spontaneous performance with Spencer Davis. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I would like to write a song whilst floating around in space.
