Nashville – January 27th, 2009 – The Duhks proudly announce the release of their new music video, “Fast Paced World”, the title track from their latest studio album, Fast Paced World. Shot at the Salton Sea in less than 48-hours, the band teamed up with director Dream Rockwell, artistic director of the vaudeville circus group Lucent Dossier, and producer Darya Danesh to create a fanciful socially-conscious music video for the Elevate Film Festival in Los Angeles.
“Lucent Dossier and the entire crew put absolutely every ounce of their emotion and energy into this video,” says lead singer Sarah Dugas. “We hadn’t the slightest idea that we would have such an amazing and exciting collective at our disposal.”
Written by Sarah Dugas, “Fast Paced World” is an expression of the band’s passion for the environment. “It’s a song that is essentially about over-consumption,” says banjo player and Duhks founder Leonard Podolak. “We’ve all grown up with an outlook where’s there’s enough for everyone without destroying the earth.”
The band prides itself on promoting sustainability, launching their own project, www.greenduhks.com in October 2007.
“As a band, its something we feel very strongly about,” says Podolak. “We just want to reduce our carbon footprint as much as humanly possible.”
