The version of Dougie’s live band on 'At Tubby’s features main stays Mike Etten on electric guitar and Connor “Catfish” Gallaher on pedal steel. On the night’s first song 'Los Angeles', Etten’s classic country licks and Catfish’s soaring slide lines perfectly compliment Dougie’s formidable acoustic work and golden baritone. You can tell these three have been playing together for years and are road tested in this formation. They tackle some of Dougie’s most loved songs, from rave-up’s ('Beth David Cemetery' & 'Vaping on the Job') to country balladry ('Must Be in There Somewhere', 'Don’t You Think I’m Funny Anymore') and all points in between.
There are some tracks here that might be new to fans of Dougie’s recent albums. 'Toshiba Sky' is a one off digital single from 2020 and 'Wild Motion' is a track Dougie wrote for L.A.’s Drugdealer, who recorded it for their 2020 album 'Raw Honey'. 'At Tubby’s also sees the recorded debut of a new Dougie composition, 'Heaven Sent an Angel' which closes out the set on a heartfelt note. 'At Tubby’s brings the listener to a spacial place and time, and will be a thrilling listen for fans old and new.
