Dom Duff is a Breton singer-songwriter and guitarist who has now released two albums over the past three years. He was born in Bro Bagan (Pagan County), a little place on the northwest coast of Brittany and, like his parents, speaks the Breton language fluently. The new album, yet another where Dom is in complete solo mode, contains a repertoire of refreshingly unusual songs inspired by or adopted from his native Breton culture. Great female voices support the songs (Julie Murphy, Nollwen Korbel, Joyce Bacon and Sille Ilves); voices from Estonia to Wales, through US and Brittany. It was back in 2003 that Dom released "Straed an amann" (Butter Street), his first solo album. Dom says, "It was a celebration of song and a crafting of words to express life's challenges and little pleasures." The result is a real cutting edge production, inventive and no doubt something that falls into the rabidly developing category of "new Celtic music".
