Composer, performer and multi-instrumentalist Doug Brown has appeared with various groups at major music festivals in North America and Europe including the Cork Jazz Festival (Ireland), the Zelt Musik Festival (Germany), the Winnipeg Folk Music Festival (Canada) and the Festival of American Music at the Barbican Centre in London, England.
He has performed with Barbara K and Pat MacDonald of Timbuk 3, "string-swing" group Harmonious Wail, songwriter Ken Lonnquist and many others. His compositions have been heard at regional theaters especially American Players Theater where he was a resident musician and composer throughout the 80's and which in 1999 prominently featured his compositions for Pericles.
His recordings include Shades of Brown, Music from American Players Theater, two CD's as a member of Harmonious Wail (Airborne and Live From the Zelt Music Festival). His music may also be heard on the compilation CD Music from American Streets and Cafe's and on the Madison Music Collective's Gathering. He produced and arranged Bergan Riley's debut CD Swing Me, and numerous other recordings.
Last year he played on and produced CD's for two songwriters, Lori Beil and Steve Albert, contributed studio work for two CD's by Ken Lonnquist and the latest release by The Moon Gypsies, created music for the pilot of "Wayne's Country Roads" a new series to be seen on Wisconsin Public Television, and with Tom Waselchuk wrote and recorded music for an original production by TAPIT Theater.
Doug and jazz singer Michelle DuVall recently released their first CD, "Standards" and next month they are looking forward to the release of a second CD "Chillin' At The White Horse", a collection of original songs written about the people Doug and Michelle have met at their regular weekend gig at Madison's White Horse Inn.
