Doug's newest album is I Get The Blues (2020). Produced by Dave Smith of Sweet 'n Juicy, with an appearance by LaRhonda Steele. This is his third album, the first with a producer. On one level, it's a tour de force survey of blues styles from jazz to boogie to gospel, influenced by Billy Joel, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Randy Newman, Aretha Franklin, and Harry Belafonte. On another level, when it's not having raucous fun--and sometimes when it is--it's a compelling and unforgettable look into mental health issues that could only have been achieved by a brilliant songwriter and lyricist with lived experience.
