About Doug Smith
Doug Smith is a nationally recognized acoustic guitarist who weaves together folk, classical, jazz and contemporary forms into a unique, flowing finger-picking style recalling the playing of Chet Atkins, Leo Kottke, Michael Hedges, and Alex de Grassi. Doug Smith's playing style has developed through many influences over the years. He began playing in the mid-60's when he was around 10 years old. His parents wanted him to take piano lessons (as had the rest of the family), but Doug had developed an interest in the Beatles and was drawn to the guitar instead, so he began guitar lessons from a local music store and continued these lessons for about a year.
