The two have taken the world by storm with tracks “aNYway,” “You’re Nasty,”  “Barbra Streisand,” and “Big Bad Wolf.”  Their signature sound joyously mashes classic disco house with forward-thinking dancefloor energy and expert production.  Many of their tracks released are off A-Trak’s recording label, Fool’s Gold.  For additional information regarding Duck Sauce, please visit their Facebook page here.

    Duck Sauce reveal video for ‘Mesmerize’

    Grammy-nominated duo Duck Sauce recently revealed the video for “Mesmerize,” marking six years since their last official release. 

    It has been 10 years since the hit release of “Barbara Streisand” and nine years after the VMA-nominated “Big Bad Wolf,” now A-Trak and Armand van Helden are back with “Mesmerize” opening a portal to a new dimension.

    The duo has also recently released a cable access variety show called Duck Duck Goose (KOPR Roswell, New Mexico) where they interview music legends David Guetta, DJ Premier,  esoteric specialists Billy Carson, Mark Sargent, and share recipes.  The variety show can be seen here. 


    Formed in 2009 in New York City, Duck Sauce consists of American producer Armand van Helden and Canadian producer A-Trak. The two have taken the world by storm with tracks “aNYway,” “You’re Nasty,”  “Barbra Streisand,” and “Big Bad Wolf.”  Their signature sound joyously mashes classic disco house with forward-thinking dancefloor energy and expert production.  “Barbara Streisand” earned the duo a Grammy nomination in 2012 and won an IDMA in 2011 for Best Underground Dance Track.  “Big Bad Wolf” earned an MTV Video Music Award nomination for Best Electronic Dance Music Video in 2012.  Many of their tracks released were off A-Trak’s recording label, Fool’s Gold.  For additional information regarding Duck Sauce, please visit their Facebook page here.

    “The number of reasons to support Indigenous efforts is the same as the number of souls who inhabit the world. White gluttony tried to kill off the very people who understood the language of the land. We chose to be owners instead of guardians, and we became a cancer. If we want to survive, we must support Indigenous efforts.”

    – Fiona Apple

    The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the disproportionate inequality that exists in the United States among people with low incomes, people of color, and those living in remote and extremely rural communities.

    NOISE FOR NOW is a national initiative that enables performers to connect and financially support grassroots organizations that are dedicated to empowering women and protecting women’s health and abortion rights.
