Artist History After playing ( drums ) with a slew of major acts across north america since I was 16, I felt it time to live my first dream and perform up front..I hosted a weekly jam night at a Vancouver venue to come out of the "drum closet" and as I had written for every band I played for I waited for the chance to get into a studio...This Chance came when I was approched to host a T.V. show in the Yukon and met a bass player who was building his own studio.Dennis Perry also needed a drummer for some shows so we made a bit of a trade (a bit)and I dropped enough to roughly cut 5 origionals 1 cover ( The Jam, Life from a window ) and the soundtrack for the T.V. show... As I was the first person in the studio, and the songs were becoming more than freight train hitting a bottle depot Dennis offered me a "deal" with his label Henderson Records... This was fantastic, as I then had a chance to really take the time to produce more, play more and even learn a bit of piano....A release is slated for late febuary, and till then I'll be playing drums in Mr. Pink (and anyone else with any taste for REAL MUSIC) and writing as much as possible...

Group Members Good evening ladies and Dougs.... Douglas plays all, save for a few bass tracks played by an actual bassist *(D.Perry, also engineer and label C.E.O!))

Instruments Drums, GitBox, BassBox, Synth, Percussionz, Cello, ARP, Vocals, and really, a FREAKIN' STUFFED FERRET!!!

Albums 7 reasons for 6 songs (limited edition CD) (forthcoming)

Press Reviews " He beat his drums like they were talkin'shit about his momma" ..Drop D mag ... " How is it that all these talented drummers,( Dave Groll, Chris Cornell) etc.. become serious songwriters, and resounding performers with ease?Doug is an incredible drummer, and a ball of energy for heavy Rock usually. His own compositions have that unmistakable drumming, but these are GOOD songs...If Sunbeam Tiger is just the begining, keep an eye out for anything that finds Doug up front, and uncensored.
