Armond Duck Chief http://armondduckchief.com/
Armond Duck Chief (born April 19th 1980) is a country singer/song writer, rodeo cowboy and family man. Born and raised in the Siksika Nation on Blackfoot territory in Alberta Canada. He grew up listening to country legends like George Jones, Hank, and Waylon, who all inspired his passion for country music. Started singing country in his early 20’s when he discovered at a karaoke bar that he could carry a note. His cousin/college roommate taught him how to play the guitar and so began his love for writing songs.
His knack for the old country music is evident in his style of singing. The songs he writes are tales of life, love and rodeo. Participating in rodeos across North America as a Steer Wrestler inspires his cowboy songs about life on the road and chasing his gold buckle dream. The shows he puts on are a bit of everything from high energy two stepping to cowboy songs, with a mix of classic country; just an all around Good time!
Releasing his debut CD titled Country Groove in November 2011 at the INFR in Las Vegas, NV is his biggest accomplishment to date. The CD is a must have album for country music lovers. With 7 songs composed by Armond as well as 3 covers.
