DUG

Based in Dublin, Ireland, Americana-Folk duo DUG brings together songwriter Conor (Lorkin) O’Reilly, originally from Edinburgh with Irish and Scottish roots, and Jonny Pickett, from California. Their music stems from musical traditions on both sides of the pond. In one breath, echoing the great American folk troubadours, and in another, comfortably channeling the elder statesmen of Irish folk. Taking the heavy with the light, and being able to translate it into a foot-tapping, infectious contemporary folk sound, is what DUG do best. They don’t need to posture; their music is naturally playful and honest, inviting you along on their musical journey.
