The Gary Douglas Band - Deep in the Water (2018)

DEEP IN THE WATER fully catapults The Gary Douglas Band to the forefront of Americana and heartland rock 'n' roll, its powerful themes and searing truths perhaps more relevant now than ever before. Produced and mixed by Niko Bolas (Neil Young, Warren Zevon) and co-produced by chart-topping songwriter/producer Darrell Brown (Keith Urban, Radney Foster), DEEP IN THE WATER sees Douglas backed by an all-star lineup of friends and fans that includes Southside Johnny, and Jeff Kazee (keyboardist for Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes), The Mavericks' Raul Malo and Paul Deakin, guitarist Josh Leo, Nicholas Biello on saxophone, The Jayhawks' Jennifer Gunderman, and a host of Nashville's finest session players. Songs such as "Nothing Ever Goes As Planned" and "Devil In Her Soul" reflect the deep rift in the very fabric of our society, a division and dysfunction that threatens to tear us apart without some unifying rallying cry to bring us together.

"I'm really proud and excited about this record," Douglas says. "I feel like a man on a mission. I'm hoping it will resonate with people and give them something to which they can relate."
