Duquette Johnston is a musician and creator based in Birmingham, Alabama. This winter, in addition to new music, he is releasing a reissue of “Etowah,” an album born from a challenging period of his life 13 years ago, which began with an arrest for felony possession of cocaine. In this conversation, Duquette tells the intimate story of that intense time of growth and shares revelations from his transformation from a “young brat” into a loving human, partner, artist and father. This is an intimate offering from the journey of one artist navigating the war on drugs and the undying need to make music.
