About Me

Doug is a songwriter, a singer, and sometimes guitar and mandolin player. He has performed in one way or another all over the US as well as parts of Europe and the UK. One of his old band-mates commented, after seeing Doug in an acoustic setting, that he really could sing. The recordings are a couple years old, and a couple of these songs are some of the best from Doug. There have been other bands that Doug has played with, or sang for. Nekkid, and the Cogburns are Doug's most recent. Doug sang and played guitar for Nekkid, and most recently played guitar and helped with backing vocals for the Cogburns. Look for Doug at a venue near you. He has moved to the UK and is looking for musicians to play with and gigs to play.
