Discography Recently garnering a Grammy® Award for his work on Eddie Palmieri’s star-studded release Listen Here (2006), Doug Beavers Rovira has become known for his meticulous attention to detail, natural-born leadership, and his unbridled enthusiasm for music. These endearing qualities have earned him the opportunity to perform throughout the world with prominent figures in jazz and latin music, including Eddie Palmieri, Rosemary Clooney, Giovanni Hildago, and Mingus Big Band, both as trombonist and arranger and composer. Doug has just finished a jazz orchestra release entitled Jazz, Baby!, which features a 20-piece jazz orchestra performing traditional kids' tunes in a 1950's - 60's big band style. Featuring Matt Catingub, Linda Harmon & Giovanni Hidalgo and recorded at Lucasfilm's Skywalker Sound, the CD will be released nationally October 23, 2007 on the Origin record label.

Wow! I am so very excited and honored that I am doing this gig with another one of the bay area's local up and coming great musician, composer, arranger, writer, bass player Mr. Daniel Parenti. You surely don't want to miss out on what is sure to be a great night at one of the east bay's own local hot spots. I hope to see you all there. Peace.

Hey man, sorry it took so long to get that disk to you. I hope you enjoy it. I love the energy and the vibe, even though the mix is sometimes a bit off (direct off the board mixes will do that to you) I still love the overall presentation of the disk.
