Dupont & Deluca

Zack Dupont is a Richmond, VT based songwriter and guitarist.  Matt DeLuca is a Williston based drummer and percussionist. Dupont & DeLuca have been long time collaborators in one of Vermont’s longest tenured bands, Japhy Ryder. That connection was the catalyst for the two to form their duo side project in 2018. The music has a bit of Folk-Americana melded with psychedelic and world music improvisations. The sound is big for a duo and both musicians push the boundaries of space between their primary instruments combined with loops, synths, drones and drop tunings. The set is approached with a blank canvas every night and evolves with full immersion and inspiration leading the way. Between the two, they have been fortunate to share the stage with nationally recognized acts like Sturgill Simpson, Taj Mahal, Bahamas, Julian Lage, Sam Amidon, Blake Mills, Steve Kimock, Soulive and RJD2 to name a few.
