Jeff Duff began his musical career in Melbourne in 1971 as lead singer of jazz-rock fusion band Kush (1971–75). Kush was formed with Jeff Duff on vocals and they released covers of 'Peter Gunn', 'MacArthur Park' and 'Walk on the Wild Side' as well as originals such as '(Livin' on) Easy Street'. After two albums the band split and Jeff moved to London.
Duff has released albums under the name 'Duffo' in the UK under major label deals. The beginning of the 'Duffo' period saw his single, 'Give Me Back Me Brain' reach No. 60 on the UK mainstream charts in 1979. Jeff was known as the Aussie musician socialite and mingled with the likes of Paul McCartney, Gary Glitter, etc.
In the late 80’s Jeff returned to Australia and performed regularly on television and continued to record.
