Doug’s Bio
Doug is a multi-instrumentalist with a love of music in all
its variations. Starting on trumpet in
elementary school, classical and jazz genres take on life. In
order to delve into rock music, the bass guitar allows exploration of
pockets and grooves. The keyboard opens up the world
of chordal interpretations and color.
On bass guitar, Doug has played in many bands over the
decades. From prog rock, classic rock, grunge, 80s rock, pop, funk, and classic
soul, Doug keeps the party on their feet.
On trumpet, Doug loves the jazz genres from Fitzgerald to
Davis to play clean melody lines and moving-heartfelt solos.
On keyboard, Doug is able to explore
music in ways non-chordal instruments (like trumpet and bass) cannot. From
finding that perfect chord inversion to ripping out a crazy solo, the keyboard
is a versatile instrument.
Doug has worked with a number of
local greats like Daryl Cline and Oz Smith. Doug played in Daryl Cline's band Jr Cline And The Recliners
for over a decade on bass guitar. This has instilled a deep love for classic
soul and the blues.
