Duke Oursler is a country musician singer/songwriter out of Macomb, Illinois. He was born the son of an oil pumper on the Great Plains of Southwest, Kansas. Duke grew up in the windswept prairies of Finney County, KS hunting pheasants, prairie chickens, rattlesnakes, and jackrabbits along the dry bottom of the Arkansas river. It is these stories and experiences the fuel his songwriting. His thoughtful, tough, honest and direct lyrics speak to the experiences, virtue and aspirations of a midwestern life. His unique brand of American country music speaks to the hard working blue-collar life and often a critiques the notion of the American Dream by contrasting the economic and cultural tropes against unifying and spiritual stories of love, loss and family found on in rural America.
