DOUG CLAYFIELD The Doug Clayfield Trio is no stranger to hard work and persistence. Spearheaded by namesake Doug Clayfield, these boys have made their mark in the backdrop of the indie community with back–to–back records and recently wrapped up their CD release party at the Registry on April 11. As a good old– fashioned rock band, The Doug Clayfield Trio have enjoyed success to the listening ears of patrons at venues such as the Fox and Fiddle, Benny’s, and The Hive. He’s been a striving musician since the age of 8, and it’s getting down to the nitty–gritty of the writing process that Doug thrives on, self–producing both discs in his home studio. 2007 saw the release of Where I’m Goin’ and his recent release I Stand On My Own features his campus radio hit of the same name. Delving into his career, Doug’s says, “I hope to do a small tour over the summer and play more gigs, hopefully another CD in the fall.” Ambitious, driven and influenced by Bryan Adams, The Doug Clayfield Trio is a straight– up rock band that offers you exactly what you want – a good night of great music. www.dougclayfield.com - Echo Weekly

Bio
At only 12 years old, Doug went out and bought his first six string and there was no turning back. It was the summer of ’91 when Bryan Adams released his album ‘Waking up the Neighbours’ and got Doug hooked on creating music. Bound and determined to write and perform his own material, Doug wrote and recorded his work throughout high school and college, penning well over 50 songs with his writing style being influenced by the likes of Bryan Adams, The Eagles, Colin James, Stevie Ray Vaughn and the legendary Eric Clapton.
Doug has played many performances over the years, but always wanted that ‘little bit more’. With the release of his first CD ‘Where I’m Goin’ in 2007 Doug’s music topped the charts on the local radio station. This combined with the addition of band mates with the same passion for music that he himself has, Doug has started playing gigs in the Tri-Cities and always fills the house with a great crowd. They have quickly become a favorite of many, appealing to those of all ages.
With the release of his second CD ‘I Stand On My Own’ Doug has made an impact on the local Indie scene and is known as a hard working musician. Doug Clayfield and his Trio is a Band to watch out for in the coming months.
