St Kyneburgha Church Castor Peterborough PE5 7AX
Brilliant singer, songwriter, guitarist and raconteur from L.A on his sixth Shakedown Blues visit.
Doug MacLeod was born in Virginia circa 1950 and raised in St Louis. He has overcome abuse and a crippling stutter to become a very highly regarded guitarist and singer songwriter on the L.A music scene. His love for blues was nurtured by a mis-spent youth prowling the bludgeoning St. Louis scene on the ‘funky’ side of the city. Here he heard and befriended Albert King, Little Milton and Ike and Tina Turner amongst others.
In the last couple of years Doug has seriously moved up in profile and has cracked both the Asian and Australian markets and is often appearing at festival circuits around the world. Since we last saw him in Castor he has left Black & Tan Records and moved his recordings to Fresh! From RR and his latest album is ‘Brand New Eyes’ the title track of which he dubuted live in Castor in 2009.
