The Story
"I've had the chance to work with literally some of the most
talented studio musicians between Seattle and Los Angeles over the
last 17 years on jingle and album projects and I always keep coming
back to Douglas because he is one of those rare renaissance men who
is amazing not only on bass and vocals, but can also pick up a
guitar, or sit down at the piano and play like a monster. Douglas is
also a brilliant arranger and composer and I'm really proud to have
him on our team with GMI. Having said all that, Douglas is also a
NICE guy and doesn't have a massive ego like so many cats do...which
makes him a delight to work with. A pro's pro."
