Product Description
Duquette Johnston and The Rebel Kings – Roll Baby Roll / Rise Up Children
Release Date: June 28th, 2011Duquette Johnston is the real deal.
As a founding member of the highly influential bands Verbena and Cutgrass, he has shared the stage with the likes of Pavement, The Strokes, Bonnie Prince Billie, The Avette Brothers, and The Jesus Lizard. To say he’s on a mission would be a serious understatement.
