You have been receiving airplay and our biggest country contact Randall Cousins has played you on his show and will probably continue to play you. His show syndicates out to many others so it is a great contact. Also, KKUP a big station in the states has been spinning you. Your track is fantastic so it will get a lot of play over time.

Doug delivers his songs with great passion and enthusiasm. As a reporter for Country Music News, I am always on the hunt for good Canadian talent. I look forward to the next project from Doug Jones.
