Great Day for DucksWhat started as a novel joke between the group’s principal songwriters - Sean Charles & Dave James - their freshmen year of high school, stayed that way for more than a decade as the two faded in and out of touch, and of creative projects alike.
Now alive and kicking, it looks like yet again the joke is on them...
As roughly a dozen years later, Great Day for Ducks finally takes the form of something real and undeniably genuine. With Cody Smith (Lead Guitar), Drew Wheeler (Bass Guitar), and Nick Fondale (Drums) in the middle of it, the band writes with the spirit of Adult Contemporary’s early crooners (think Bread and Bruce Hornsby) - fused with the nostalgic appeal of 21st century acts like Jack’s Mannequin and Dawes.
In all, the group’s very beginning is a testament to its philosophy: Life will always find a way to surprise you. Its winding, bumpy roads are far too narrow to turn back on, but the scenery is always worth the ride.
