“Magic Mirror Story Book” - Duane Hoover
With Magic Mirror Story Book, Hoover steps into a richer, more cinematic chapter of his artistic evolution — one that feels less like a follow-up to Wayward Path and more like a widening of the lens. Where the previous album moved with immediacy — jangling guitars, confident stride, and a youthful rush.
“Wayward Path” - Duane Hoover
If you threw Buddy Holly’s glasses, Pete Townshend’s arm swing, and a fuzz pedal into a blender—then let it spin through decades of British and American rock history—you might just get Duane Hoover’s Wayward Path. But even then, you wouldn’t quite capture the full picture. Because what Hoover’s created here is more than homage—it’s a wired, whirlwind reinterpretation of musical DNA, spliced together with attitude, heart, and a healthy dose of wild-eyed obsession.
