Sam Duckworth

Young, Southend troubadour Duckworth, who started out in emo and hardcore bands and went on to tour as a folky one-man-and-his-guitar act under the guise of Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly, which promptly evolved into one man, a guitar, a laptop and a six-strong band, gets set to release his first album under the name his parents gave him. 'The Mannequin', which Duckworth produced himself, will be released later in the summer.
