about
Doug Prescott Doug has been crafting his songwriting skills since the late 60's. Many bands and recordings later, 2013 saw the release of his 3rd solo effort, Blues in the Key of Sea. This new release features Billy Payne from Little Feat. This CD features what has become the core band, with special guests, including Mike Wesolowski (Blues World Order) on blues harp, Danny Gotham on mandolin, Johnny Gallagher (Ireland) on electric guitars, and Tony Bowman on keys (Edgar Winter Band) as well as engineering/co-production. Tom Maxwell (Squirrel Nut Zippers) also contributes on production. The 11 songs on this release are all over the map stylistically, yet form a cohesive Blues/Rock/Americana blend, with truth and heart at the core. One of the common threads throughout Doug's recordings have been his musical connection with Tommy Hartley, a guitar virtuoso who permeates the music. Tommy Hartley Tommy has been at the core of the Triangle music scene for decades. Perhaps best known for his tribute band Slowhand - a Tribute to Eric Clapton. This native of Lenoir, North Carolina has been involved with many bands throughout the years, with time in Nashville as well as on many recordings. Tommy always lends an expert guitar hand to whatever the project in which he is involved. He has a great voice and contributed background vocals to this new release in addition to a good measure of fine guitar work. His credits include co-production, guitar, and vocals for Nancy Middlet
