While the Dukes' said farewell to the states for the month of June to play the UK's finest summer festivals including Isle of Wight, Glastonbury, and the Wireless Music Festival, the band's return to the U.S finds them as commanding as ever with performances at All Points West, multiple Download Festivals, and the New American Music Union Festival as well as a return to NYC to play Webster Hall with friends Supergrass.
When not busy plotting their North American trek, The Duke Spirit managed to secure the highly coveted TV promo spot for the NBA playoffs featuring Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, and The Duke Spirit's track "Wooden Heart." These special ads aren't the only place you'll catch The Duke Spirit on television this summer � they will be performing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on July 22.
