Duncan Phillips Set for CD Release "Long Gone" A Tribute to Bruce "Utah" Phillips


Black Rose Acoustic Society is very proud to present the CD release for the Utah Phillips tribute, "Long Gone" on January 27th, 2012.


Long Gone is a tribute CD comprised of artists from in and around the state of Utah. The artists included are former music students and band mates of the late Utah Phillips (May 15, 1935 – May 23, 2008), as well as artists that have been influenced by his vast body of work over the years.


Throughout the recording process, all of the guitar work was performed on "Utah's" old road-worn Guild guitar, the same guitar that his son Duncan Phillips now uses on stage to pay tribute to his father: "The Golden Voice of the Great Southwest" Bruce "Utah" Phillips.


Utah Phillips was nominated for a Grammy Award for his collaborations with Ani DiFranco. In 1997, he was recognized by the North American Folk Alliance for a lifetime achievement award. On May 23, 2008, he died from complications associated with heart disease. Accompanying Duncan for this extraordinary performance will be Doug Wintch and Anke Summerhillk, both accomplished musicians in their own right.
