The Duo will return to the US in March 2015 and plan to tour the States twice a year. SA music fans will get to see them live across the country over the next few months before they head abroad again. "Stuck" is taken from Connecting Stars' self-titled Debut album, which was produced by long time musical peer and friend of the band, John Ellis - also from Tree63 fame.  Ellis also played a variety of the instruments on the record and helped them create the country-tinged pop masterpiece that has been likened to acts such as Lady Antebellum.
