Sounds LikeMy styles vary from song to song and set to set, as you can see from what other people say here ...

"Tex/Mex/Latin/Hull bloke fusion" - Frank Johnson @ The Blue Bell, Cottingham

"Really weird/experimental music" - Hull Pagans Online Forum

"[His] vocals remind of Perry Leopold and the arrangements sit somewhere between Gwydion and Clannad" - Woven Wheat Whispers

"A daring blend of folk, Spanish and acoustic-rock guitar" - Musician Magazine

"Like Macbeth in song form, full of menace and symbolism"- Andy Thompson @ The Waverley Bar , Edinburgh

"Reminscient of Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson with some emotive guitar playing and song writing" - Darren Bunting @ Music HQ

Make of that lot what you will, and if you're still confused, buy one of my CDs and make up your own mind!!

- Doug

PS. if you have your own idea of what, or who, I sound like, feel free to message me. So long as it's not too offensive, I'll put it up here with the rest!

MY CDs


Sacred Water (2002), ambient reflective songs dominated by acoustic guitar and vocals and enhanced by keyboard and sampled sounds of the environment with a folky, pagan and travel feel. Available now £4.99 from Green Man Music

John Barleycorn Reborn: Dark Britannica (2007) is a double CD compilation of songs from around 30 British folk artisits including Doug Peters, comprising of dark folk music tracks on a Death/Rebirth theme.
