“Playful and engaging…”
There’s a funk folk influence in Duff‘s vocals that’s really cool. The harmonies and harmonic qualities are executed well and have a nice, gentle undertone. The lyrics are really entertaining — I love how they detail a story of a night gone wild and the remnants of it. It’s really playful and engaging to the listener! Thanks to playlister WeDoAwesome and the We Do Alternative Vibes Spotify playlist for the playlist add and the cool review!

“An acoustic bonanza!” –KC Cafe Radio Review
Folk/Pop crooner Duff Ferguson is back with his third solo album More Than I Should! More Than I Should is a 10-track acoustic bonanza that captures Duff performing alone with a humble 1960’s student guitar into 3 vintage mics that fill the ears with the passion and power of a full band. Smitten hearts, love’s desires and bitter endings will pull at your heart strings on More Than I Should. Duff also sings about the painful side of the human experience with personal reflections on the mysteries of death, memory and self understanding but he also sings about the hope for brighter days.

Move over Dave Matthews, Duff Ferguson is nipping at your heels with the aptly named “Good Things”… ALL ACCESS MAGAZINE Review
Melodic, mindful and memorable… ”Good Things” is cd player worthy. While not a screaming rock tour de force or low key offering- Ferguson falls somewhere in the middle delivering crafty, hook laden pop that has polished lyrics and solid, engaging vocals. Ferguson also knows how to keep it tight and not overt – 10 tracks eek out a 35 minute cd that leaves you exactly where it should – wanting more. Good Things follows Duff’s 2005 EP 400 Miles, which was named one of the top 25 releases in 2005 by an unsigned band in Music Connection Magazine. Duff’s solo touring has taken him up and down the West Coast…

Americana UK Review of Good Things
Polished west coast power pop – shallow and pretty. Pop was never meant to be a thing of deep meaning and contemplation and ‘Good Things’ is certainly true to that template. Simple tunes with catchy choruses and sunny dispositions imbue this short cd (35 mins) with a great sense of optimism and good will. The title track is so joyous it could be a theme tune for some new age radio programme espousing the arrival of nirvana. Duff Ferguson has released 5 EPs prior to this one and the sound is polished with all production boxes ticked and musicians drilled. The vocals are deceptively assured and each track has its…

CD of the Day: Absolute Powerpop Review of Good Things
Good Things is certainly an appropriate title, and it’s a quality disc of California pop… As much as I like to be up on the latest power pop releases, a few always manage to slip through the cracks. Back in early 2005, I bought an EP titled 400 Miles by an artist named Duff, and enjoyed it. But I never heard about Duff again, and chalked it up to a case of another one-and-done artist. Well it turns out that the Duff of 400 Miles is actually Californian Duff Ferguson, and he released Good Things in mid-December of last year, which only came to my attention in recent weeks. Good Things is…

Now This ROCKS! Review of Good Things
Since we feature a lot of AOR and power pop, we cover a lot of releases that are brimming with positivity, inspiration, and feel good music. Duff Ferguson can certainly join the ranks of such artists, but could also be a contender to be their leader. Duff Ferguson’s full-length debut, “Good Things” is aptly named; most of the tracks are instant pick me ups in lyric and spirit, with excellent musicianship and well-crafted harmonies – good things indeed. An impressive list of guests who are no strangers to fans of power pop grace this release, including Todd Herfindal (Meadows), guitarist Tony Gilkyson (Bob Dylan), bassist Taras Prodanuik (Lucinda Williams). The record will snap…

Americana UK Review of 400 Miles
LA based singer-songwriter Duff gives us 5 songs on this EP which lie on the poppier side of rock. The opening track “Suddenly” begins promisingly with an Al Kooperesque swirl of organ before the band kicks in and Duff sings a love song that is reminiscent of the type of fare that the likes of Darius would offer. The title song is better, a ballad about a dead lover with Duff putting some emotion into his singing and some nice guitar and organ pinning the tune. A bit more muscle and grit would not go amiss.

Left Off the Dial Review of 400 Miles
No doubt he has the people swaying in the aisles in a live setting… Harmless, if not a little bratty, Duff peddles light, rootsy pop, and it works most of the time here on this five-song EP. Suddenly and Adrenaline are pleasant enough, and no doubt he has the people swaying in the aisles in a live setting. He tries tough on You Can Try, but after the first three songs, its hard to imagine him as wild. Its about as hard as a puppy. Lets hope hes singing about an older brother. No, he seems much more suited to the sweet pathos of 400 Miles and Sigh. You can…
