Band & Musician News - David 'Duck' Barraclough Releases His New Album

David 'Duck' Barraclough Releases His New Album

27 March 2017 - 0 Comments

New Zealand 2015 Music Hall of Fame inductee for The Exponents, David 'Duck' Barraclough today releases his new album, the eponymously named Duckshit.

After enduring a particularly challenging time in his life, the man who gave us The Exponents hits La La Lulu and Summer You Never Meant, David 'Duck' Barraclough (while confined to his inner city West Sydney apartment), spent the year writing and recording this dark musical comedy for our listening pleasure. Now we have decided to share.

DUCK ON DUCK

Hi I'm Duck. I've been known as Duck for as long as I can remember. Actually my given name is David Barraclough. A couple of years ago I tried to get everybody I know to call me David. To their credit everybody tried their best but I had to stop that to save people embarrassment. I hadn't realized how many people had speech impediments. No longer "Hey Duck", it became "hey duu..daavid", sometimes with dribble involved. So I'm back to being kind to people and only having a one syllable title. Not many people know that my full nickname is Duckshit. So this is Duckshit a collection if stuff what I do. Some of it are the best word things what I ever rit. I dare you to enjoy.

David 'Duck' Barraclough - Fanfliptastic, Duckshit, Musical Genius, Fullest Full Loving” - Jordan Luck – The Exponents

“David 'Duck' Barraclough introduced me to the recorded song poems of the Scot Ivor Cutler and the novels of Franz Kafka while touring with Mental As Anything for ten years.  This is the sensible way into the mind of Duck. His worldview contrasts cynicism with romance; pessimism with optimism; tinkling piano with heavy guitar; Milton, Wordsworth, Coleridge et al with Charles Bukowski and he has a total disappointment with and an unblinking love of sport. I'm not altogether sure he is of this time but his personal philosophy makes for a singular and entertaining view of the mess we find ourselves in today”. - Greedy Smith – Mental As Anything
