Gary Duncan - After Quicksilver

After Quicksilver

In the mid-1980s Duncan revived the Quicksilver name and began touring with his own band even releasing an album, Peace by Piece. He released a few more albums into the 1990s with the Quicksilver name but he is the only original member in the group (except David Freiberg who guested on some tracks). He began touring with a four piece band up until 2001 when the World Trade Center was attacked. After that Duncan recalls there were no more shows to play and he tore down his home studio for financial reasons. He says: "I tore the Studio apart by myself... no help from any of my friends... in fact not even a word... they all came and got the stuff they had stored and left the stuff they didn’t want so I could haul it away and they just never spoke to me again..."

Duncan walked away from the music industry for the next few years until 2004, when he began releasing music from his Quicksilver band in the 1980s and 1990s. In 2006 Duncan reunited with Freiberg and began touring again as the Quicksilver Messenger Service. They still perform today.
