    Tom Petty, Tom Waits, Beth Orton
    Artist History
    Richard Douglas' self-titled solo debut blands a unique songwriter approach with touches of indie rock and trip-hop culminating in a catchy ride on the dark side. His distinctive and diverse vocals conjure up images of Tom Waits meets Beth Orton meets Tom Petty - moody, memorable and brutally honest. Born and raised in Tennessee, Richard was raised in a musical family, heir to a rich tradition as the grandson of renowned opera tenor Miguel Fleta. Richard moved to New York City in 1987 to pursue a visual arts career and moved to Brooklyn in 1993 and he began to focus on music, forming the ciritically respected Audio Poolside and Five Stories Down. Recently Richard has turned an eye inward and honed his craft, working with many talented Brooklyn-based musicians. The result, "Richard Douglas", is a beautifully molded montage produced by Tony Maimone (bass - Pere Ubu, Frank Black, UV Ray) and Joel Hamilton (guitar/fx - Shiner; engineer - Sparklehorse). Incorporating acoustic and electric guitars, drums, percussion, synth, violin and several guest female vocalists along with Richard's aesthetic, this record is dreamy and infectious.
