Doug Rose.......

Singer of true country western songs, wanna be songwriter and have guitar will travel guy. A few friends refer to me as the human jukebox........I try! With thousand of songs flying around in my head, I continue to learn new songs every week and am in constant pursuit of writing that perfect country and western song ***************************** In June of 2017, I finally wrote my first song after attending Thomas Michael Rileys Music Festival in Luckenbach. I was inspired by all of the artists. Took months to put music to the words flying around in my head. Then one day TMR sent a message - "How would you like to play my fesitval" - I almost fell over! Not yes but Hell Yes!!! What an honor! So I got to play my first song I had written about my experience at Luckenbach on the stage at Luckenbach ~ "This Hallowed Ground"© ....."A writer of songs I hope that I'll be and someday I'll sing and they'll listen to me . My words will tell stories, they'll see what I see In Luckenbach Texas under that tree"........ ~drm

A little history..........

After many years of open mics, playing bars, restaurants and benefits - I have had the privilege of playing with some of the best in Texas music. In recent years, I've opened for Mark Wills, Lori Morgan, Randy Brown, Jason Boland and joined Terry Rasor to open for the legendary David Allen Coe. After meeting Robynn Shayne out of Austin at Mike Crow's Crowman Jam at Turkey Creek, she invited me to do a little back up guitar for her debut on 95.9 The Ranch TXRDR show at Back Forty Smokehouse August of 2017. Imagine playing live on the radio not only with Robynn but the legendary Radney Foster and Kyle Hutton who were seated right next to her. I have been very honored to have won a couple of 92.1 Hank FM Crowman Jams and very blessed to play at the last Tommy Alversons Family Gathering #TAFGXX between Steve Helms and Jamie Richards. Thanks to everyone for the votes and continued support! ~Doug "Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time." Thomas Edison

I love playing everything from Merle, Hank, Willie, Johnny Cash to Stoney Larue, Jason Boland. and throw in a little Toby Keith every now and then I also venture into the classic rock era with BTO, Lynyrd Skynyrd and other artists dear to my heart thanks for listening ~ drm
