I’m going to be playing a solo show on May 9th at Rock Shop in Brooklyn, NY. Also playing this night is my good friend and fellow Sharon Van Etten band member, Heather Woods Broderick as well as Amanda Shires. I’ll also be playing bass in Heather’s band this night. I’m getting ready to record a new record (and tour like crazy in SVE’s band) so this will be my last solo show for a while. You all should come out for it, will be a very fun one!

Yeow,

Doug

Anyone who knows me knows that one of my absolute favorite records that came out in 2011 is Little Scream’s album The Golden Record (in fact, I am listening to it while I type this). So it is with the absolute utmost pleasure that I tell you that I am going to be playing a few shows with them at the end of November on the east coast! I’ll be playing solo. It’s gonna rule.

We’re hitting Washington, DC, Philadelphia, PA and Brooklyn NY. All dates and info are below and on my tour page. See you out there!

Hi all,

I’ve been keeping (super) busy playing bass for Sharon Van Etten. We’ve been touring like crazy behind her absolutely flawless record epic and will keep doing so straight through 2011. You can see all dates HERE. Ben Lord (who played drums on my record and tours with me regularly) is also in the band. It’s a sweet family we’ve created. We did an awesome US tour with Junip in November, a short run in the US with Julianna Barwick, we’re heading to Europe with The National in February and then doing a full US tour (including SXSW) with Little Scream. I can highly recommend you pick up every record by all of these people. Awesome people making awesome music. You gotta love it.
I’ll be recording a new record of my own this year (I’ve been demoing like crazy) and will play some shows of my own as well this summer. Check back for updates and such. In the meantime, come see Sharon Van Etten (trust me, she is absolutely amazing) and say hi. Would love to see you.

Be well,
-Doug

I’m doing a couple of solo shows to finish out 2010. This Thursday, September 30th, I’ll be playing my first show in Kansas City in over 5 years. I can’t believe it has been that long since I’ve been back. The show is at The Uptown Theater with Jimmy Wayne. I’m doing a very short set at about 8 pm. The show is a private event so I can’t help with tickets and this was a last minute booking so none of the clubs were available to do a public show. If anyone knows of anything for Friday, October 1st, let me know, would love to play!

The other solo shows are a quick tour through Vermont in late October. I’m playing Montpelier, Middlebury & Burlington. After that I’m off on tour as part of Sharon Van Etten’s band for all of November (we’re opening 20 shows for Junip) and then working on a new record in December & January.

Keep in touch!

I’m hitting the road with the band for a full week in October! It’s been a while since I’ve been on the road with the band and I couldn’t be more excited about it. Come check us a out if we’re playing your town. All dates below and on the tours page!

Happy fall! Good stuff all around over here at base camp.

I’ve recently started playing bass in Sharon Van Etten’s band! If you haven’t heard Sharon yet, I strongly suggest you check her out. She’s a truly amazing person that writes incredibly beautiful songs. We’re heading out on tour starting on September 8th! You can see all of her dates on her website and her Myspace page.

Come check us out and say hi!

Here’s a video of me playing Elizabeth Cotten’s song, “Oh Babe, It Ain’t No Lie”, on tour in February, 2010.

Some great things coming up just before I head out on tour!
The reissue of my remixed/remastered 2009 record, Here’s to Outliving Me, comes out next Tuesday, July 13th! It’ll be available everywhere in CD and digital format, there are some bonus tracks free with both options! Get a copy, get a copy!
To celebrate, I’m doing a last minute good time hometown show. The good people at The Mercury Lounge had an opening on the 13th and asked if I wanted to play it. I’m going to be doing a smaller version of my usual band and good friends. You should come, it’s going to be an absolute blast and I’ll be playing at least two brand new songs! I’m playing right about 8 pm!

In addition to all of that, the good folks at WHUS in Storrs, CT have asked me to come up and take over the station from noon to 3 pm EST this Saturday, July 10th! You can listen in live right HERE!
I’m going to be playing live, playing songs I like, talking about what I’m into and all sorts of other cool stuff, so tune in, it’s going to be a really fun show!
