The Lilac Time
In 1986, Nick and Stephen formed The Lilac Time along with his friend, Michael Weston. Since their formation, the Lilac Time have gone through various line-up changes with the Duffy brothers as mainstays. In the band, Nick plays banjo, violin and accordion among other instruments. He also contributes songwriting and has done production work on their recordings. The band's sporadic activity and recording output have intertwined with Stephen's solo and songwriting career.
Nick is featured in The Lilac Time documentary film "Memory & Desire" by Douglas Arrowsmith which is slated to be released in 2009.
