We are a rockin' country music party band. Everywhere we play... the dance floor is always full of excited people having fun !! If you really want to get the party started, then you need this band.
We specialize in country music . But we're also known for performing some great rock & roll, southern rock, oldies, and even a blues song or two (all great dance music) ! You never really know what we'll play next depending on the crowd. We mix up the music to offer something for other people who may not want to hear just country music. HOWEVER, if your show calls for all country music and nothing else,, Then we are more than willing to accommodate your request. Our equipment and attitude is very professional and we have over 5o years of musical experience between us.
No event is too big or too small. We just want to perform for people who enjoy great live entertainment. But we're also used to entertaining large crowds as we have hosted many major events over the past few years.
If the people are not dancing and having a good time, then we are not doing our job plain and simple!
This is the ultimate party band for any occasion.
About Rupert,
Heavily influenced by country and rock... I write songs that combine the two music groups in a unique mixture of fresh new original music that is in a category all of its own! Some of my songs are country meets rock.. while others remain as country as any traditional country music fan would expect.....
Recently (2005) received finalist honors in the (VH1- Save The Music) Song of The Year Songwriting Contest. The song is called "Don't You Love Me Anymore"!
Recorded two songs in Nashville, Tennessee on an indie record label.. One of these songs called "Would You Take Me" reached No. 10 on the Independent Country Music Charts. You can hear it here on the audio file.
I am very proud of my 2 originals titled " Country Song ( Its Got To Be Country) " & " Hugs And Kisses ". These two songs were produced by my friend Mr. "Ronnie Montrose" , from the rock band "Montrose". Ronnie Montrose is the person who discovered "Sammy Hagar" !. I love it when we play these songs at a show and people come up and say " who sings that song?". Thats when I just light up with a huge smile and say " We Do " ! "Hugs And Kisses" is an extra special song straight from the heart . At first we were dedicating this song only to the people serving in the armed forces and troops who serve our great country which we still do. But now I'm finding out that anybody missing a family member can relate to this song....
Even if you don't hire us for the gig, you should at least listen to this song "Hugs And Kisses"!
About the Band,
Over the past few years "The Rupert Duncan Band" has performed at many major corporate events, rodeo dances, casinos, festivals, fundraisers, private parties, weddings, and a number of benefit performances for a worthy cause.
We are the perfect blend of country and rock & roll ! And we get the whole house rocking when we play ( off the hook). Its like a big party.
