Los Duggans is a little bit folk, a little bit metal, and whole lotta rock'n'roll. Their songs are filled with themes about everyday life and it's struggles - living, working, and dying. Mixing genres like a marinade, they call their music "Death Folk."

"Is it possible to take American roots music (country blues, folk, union organizing songs) and add a contemporary rock element for an evolutionary punch, yet still remain true to the original intent and intense passions? The answer was no until the formation of L.A.s own Los Duggans..."

Have your lighters ready alongside your raised fists. Los Duggans is the fiercest quartet this side of the Mississippi. They first came of notice at the Sundance film festival, where they accompanied the controversial live performance "Proving Ground." A piece that Village Voice called "one of the only Sundance products that wasn't for sale."

This is music aimed squarely at your belly. Mixing genres like a marinade, they play their own brand of Appalachian/ metal/ blues/ punk...distorted guitars raging with banjo, gut bucket beating along with a modern drum kit.

Los Duggans just released their debut album, Calvary - Ten raucous songs of pure LA Death Folk.
