Reference Recordings proudly presents Between Somewhere and Goodbye, their 6th release with the outstanding, multi-­Blues Music Award winner Doug MacLeod. Internationally acclaimed for his original songwriting, warm, soulful vocals, guitar wizardry and witty storytelling, Doug teamed with producer Andreas Werner, engineer Joe Funderburk in Nashville’s Creative Workshop studio, and mastering engineer Sean Royce Martin of Reference Recordings for Between Somewhere and Goodbye. Supported by Nashville notables: drummer Lynn Williams, Mark T . Jordan on piano, Wurlitzer electric piano and B3 organ, and bassist Paul Ossola plus the vocal harmonies of The Shoals Sisters, Cindy Richardson Walker, Marie Tomlinson Lewey and Carla Russell, Doug offers up a collection of eleven of his compositions presented in both solo and ensemble settings. Collectively known as the Funky Chester Rhythm Section, these musicians have worked with many of the very best; Bonnie Raitt, John Hiatt, Levon Helm, Delbert McClinton, Lyle Lovett, Van Morrison, Buddy Guy and the Saturday Night Live Band. Doug used two guitars on this record: his Waterloo WL S Deluxe called ‘P ­Nut,’ and ‘Little Bit,’ his vintage Gibson C­-100 FE. The cover features a painting of the iconic Hernando de Soto Bridge, created for this album by artist Matthew Hasty. Since moving to Memphis, Tennessee in 2019, the mighty Mississippi River has influenced and informed much of Doug’s life and songwriting. The album booklet also includes Doug’s own personal and informative liner notes explaining, “This album is a little different from my other albums. Oh, there’s blues here, humor here, and even a touch of soul here. And…… there’s a theme running through many of the songs here.”
