Medicine Man is the much anticipated second album from one of Aotearoa’s best-loved live rock/roots acts dDub.
 
The songs are a culmination of two years writing, touring and extensive road testing. The album was recorded in-between a busy 12 month schedule of 56 NZ and Australian tour dates and numerous summer festival appearances such as the 13,000 strong crowd at the Rhythm and Vines festival 08.

The production approach for Medicine Man was to capture the live performance ‘magic’ dDub is renowned for, and combine it with the subtleties and precision of the recording process. The band was heavily involved with producing and utilised additional musicians to create a full and expanded sound. 
 
Mastering for Medicine Man was handled the legendary Don Bartley in Sydney (Silverchair, Missy Higgins, Evermore). Medicine Man was mixed and engineered by Singapore based Stu Newman (Stellar, Greg Johnson).  Newman was also a major influence in the sound of dDub’s debut album Awake at Dawn which garnered 4 and 5 star reviews in NZ, Australia and the USA, and sold over
5000 copies locally.
