Doug Lamb
Central Kentucky artist playing eclectic blues with heavy influences of Motown, a bit of classic country, and just a taste of class. (Just a taste, mind you!)

Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yup. Solo gigs as well as keyboards/vocals for an 11-pc R&R outfit called "The Quack", and a 4-pc fun-time band called "Mama's Pajamas". All over the state (Richmond, Lexington, Louisville, Frankfort) as well as an occasional out o' towner.
