Duke & Goldie

Vancouver-based duo Duke & Goldie blends the soul of warm folk storytelling with an upbeat, mystical country twang to create a unique sound all their own. The musical partnership of Jena “Goldie” Gogo and Eric “The Duke” Duquette has birthed a sound that feels both timeless and refreshingly new. Described as a revival of the sun-kissed Laurel Canyon vibes of the ‘60s and ‘70s, their music invites listeners to journey through heartland stories and wide-open landscapes.

Their debut EP, Duke & Goldie (2023), has garnered rave reviews, with Canadian Beats calling it "A masterpiece that skilfully balances folk and country elements while showcasing the duo’s exceptional vocal abilities” The album quickly found its way onto the airwaves of CBC, College Radio, and even the BBC, earning recognition for its rootsy yet forward-thinking sound,
On stage, Duke & Goldie weave cascading harmonies over acoustic guitar-laden arrangements, bringing stories to life that travel from the towering Rocky Mountains to the quiet mystery of remote deserts. They explore the complexity of their roles as modern-day settlers, grappling with identity, place, and purpose in the beautiful land they call home. But it's their magnetic on-stage chemistry—playful yet deeply connected—that truly hooks audiences, making every performance feel like an intimate invitation into their special world.
Duke & Goldie’s sophomore EP Romance and Ramblin’ will be released this fall 2025 and is produced by acclaimed producer Erik Nielsen (known for his work with City and Colour and Blue Moon Marquee).
