Having opened for the likes of Van Morrison and Snow Patrol, he is known for putting on a captivating live performance – often using unusual instruments such as old gramophones or transistor radios. Duke Special’s four-concert tour of the Czech Republic kicks off Tuesday night at Prague’s Malostranská Beseda. We caught up with him ahead of his show, the second time he will be performing here, and started out by asking if he had any special connection to the Czech Republic. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/duke_special.jpg?timestamp=1591241590 https://english.radio.cz/northern-irelands-eclectic-performer-duke-special-tours-czech-republic-8562648 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
