Dear Duhks Fans:

After almost a decade of Duhkdom and much deliberation, I have decided to take a new path.  Although I'm not sure where it is taking me, the peacefulness I feel tells me it is the right decision.

I have so much gratitude to you, the fans, who have supported us these past 8 years.  You've cheered us on, through thick and thin, and blown us away with your beauty, your stories, your joys and sorrows.  Thanks to you, we've had experience after experience of a lifetime, and you've been there right along with us all the way.

Playing in the Duhks has been an amazing education and evolution, and I'm so thankful to have had the opportunity to learn and grow with every member, past and present; Leonard, Jordan, Jessee, Rodrigo, Scott, Sarah and Christian, and a big thanks to their families for putting up with us! (props to Aoife for our awesome tour of Ireland and Denmark too!).  Thanks to our producers - Mark, Gary, Bela, Tim and Jay - you pushed us beyond our perceived limits and brought prospective and grace to our fumbling but loving hearts.  Thanks to anyone who ever booked (and took a chance on) us, to all the amazing folk festivals we've had the privilege of playing, and a most honorable mention to our all-time favorite homecoming festival, Mag/Springfest.  
Thanks to CAA and all our managers over the years for the wisdom we learned by working through thick and thin, thanks to all the crew and tour managers who have dedicated months on end to making our lives easier, and a big thanks to the folks at Sugarhill Records (and their sister label Vanguard) for putting their hearts, souls and time into helping us realize our dreams.  There are so many people who volunteered their time, money and resources to help nurture our creativity and our business.  It's truly astounding to think about!

As all good things must come to and end, my time with the band has drawn to a close.  I wish the best for the band, and excitedly await its new incarnation, this time from a new perspective.

Love,

Tania
