Doug Alldred - Profile
Name:
Doug Alldred
Why you have such a ridiculous name:
It’s what my parents called me – ask them. I never thought it was very rock ‘n’ roll, but it’s the one I’ve got and I hate obvious stage-names. What do you want me to do?
Members:
Just me – I am a solo artist.
Your base:
The Isle of Wight.
Website:
www.DougAlldred.com
When & how you formed:
Do I need to tell you about the birds and the bees here..? Seriously though, I played in a number of bands for years ‘til I decided to have a go at doing stuff myself and found that I quite like it.
Where can we usually find you if we want our money back or something?
At the bar.
The kinda sounds you play:
I’m told I sound like a modern Pink Floyd with a touch of 70s Bowie, which I love. The first album also got compared to Deep Purple, but Christ knows why – it sounds nothing like them. That’s critics for you.
Your heroes:
Musically; David Bowie, Roger Waters, BB King, Dr John, AC/DC.
Your thoughts on world politics:
The only people suitable for power are the ones who really don’t want it. Oooops… look who we’ve got.
The top three things readers need to know about you:
1. When my next album comes out
2. Where they can get my songs
3. When I’m playing live next
