The Duck Downpickers; inspired by the home-cooked mountain music of the Appalachians, play acoustic zyda-jug-holy-billy blues, a little tongue in beak! Lively, loud, toe-tapping revelry; hard driven primitive banjo, chugging guitar and thumping fat fiddle, seasoned with lush wailing harmonies! 

 

The Duck Downpickers are:

  • Gerry McDonald – Vocals, Clawhammer Banjo, Foot Percussion, Banjo-Uke, Dulcimer, and Kazoo

  • Jonathan Ashley – Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Harmonica, Clawhammer Banjo and Mandolin

  • Clayton Jacobson – Vocals and Double Bass

  • Wayne Plunger & Emmylou Trailer-Parker - two flat footin’ Appalachian Limberjacks (puppets)

See The Duck Downpickers on YouTube playing Crawdad and Shady Grove
