Doug MacLeod

Doug MacLeod is known for his superb songwriting, guitar wizardry, warm soulful vocals, wit, and unforgettable live performances. At the heart of a MacLeod performance is his knack for storytelling, bringing characters-from the faceless to the legendary-to strikingly real life.

Doug is a multiple Blues Music Award winner, including 'Acoustic Artist Of The Year' 2020 and 'Acoustic Album Of The Year' 2018, and was also recently nominated for 'Acoustic Artist Of The Year' 2022.

An international touring artist, Doug writes and sings original songs that are based on his own life and experiences. He learned from the old masters and carries forward a valuable tradition. As a youth, Doug overcame abuse and a crippling stutter by turning to music. After picking up a guitar, and singing - he found his voice. Over 30 years, 21 studio albums, several live records, compilations, a blues guitar instructional DVD, and a live performance DVD - MacLeod has consistently earned raves.
