Gráinne Duffy's unique, innovative fusion of blues, rock, Americana and Celtic influences shines through in new album, "Dirt Woman Blues" Already achieving a No.1 ranking on The Roots Music Report's Top 50 Album Ireland Chart and a Top10 position on the Top 50 Contemporary Blues Album Chart, the album is tipped to be one of the best blues releases of 2023. Her sixth album to date, the album was written over the second covid lockdown, between locations at Duffy's home studio and a studio in Encinitas, California. About the album, Gráinne explains: "My new record reflects my love of the blues mixed with my love of songwriting. Chris Goldsmith (Ben Harper) and Marc Ford (Black Crowes) producing on this album brought together a perfect mix of Irish and American music influences". Toronto Is Broken teams up once more with REEBZ for the turbulent Nu-Metal-infused Drum & Bass Single "Breed." Featuring a brutal vocal performance from REEBZ, "Breed" ventures deeper into rock territory. The track sports a decidedly malevolent atmosphere as it explores themes of mental illness as seen from the inside out as featured in the lyrics. With the track the pair also dropped the official music video that perfectly illustrates the themes in black and white macabre fashion that are found in the single.
