Duke Robillard (Michael John Robillard) was born on October 4, 1948, Woonsocket, Rhode Island. He is one of the few contemporary instrumentalists who easily moves from blues to jazz, rockabilly to roots of rock.
Robillard began playing professionally in the mid-1960s and continues to dazzle audiences with his stunning technique and great tone, playing upwards of 250 shows annually.

Robillard has received numerous Blues Award nominations as "Best Blues Guitarist," winning in 2000, 2001, 2003, and 2004. He has recorded with artists such as Jimmy Witherspoon, Snooky Prior, Jay McShann, Hal Singer, Pinetop Perkins, Joe Louis Walker, Todd Sharpville, Tom Waits and Bob Dylan.
Robillard has released nearly two-dozen albums since 1984, venturing into barrelhouse and jump blues styles, jazz, and even world music.
