Michael John "Duke" Robillard is a blues guitarist and singer.

Born October 4, 1948 in Woonsocket, Rhode Island. After paying his dues in various bands and even working for Guild guitars, he formed Roomful of Blues in 1970. He has also been a member of the Fabulous Thunderbirds which included Kim Wilson and Jimmie Vaughan. Although an extremely competent guitarist in Jazz, Swing, Rock and Roll and modern electric blues forms, Duke is generally regarded as the foremost authority and guitar player keeping the blues style of T-Bone walker alive and well.
