Internationally, she’s headlined The Celtic Connections Festival in Scotland and the Tonder Festival in Denmark. She’s the winner of the three top prizes in the singer-songwriter world: The Grand Prize in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition, the prestigious Kerrville (TX) “Best New Folk Award” and The Boston Music Award for “Outstanding Folk Act”.
“Duvekot has gotten hotter, faster than any local songwriter in recent memory. Her songs feel at once fresh faced and firmly rooted, driven by the whispery sensuality of her voice. She believes in the redemptive power of the shared secret; and is utterly unafraid to mine the darkest corners of her life for songs that turn fear into resilience and isolation into community.” The Boston Globe
“This is a brilliant, brilliant album. I have had this reaction once in the last 10 years and that was the first time I heard Patty Griffin.”
– Rolling Stone music editor Dave Marsh
