Tom Doughty

Great painters paint, but great artists create…. Rembrandt did it with shadows and light, Van Gogh with texture, Picasso with shape. Edward Hopper took the seemingly ordinary and transformed it into the extraordinary. Tom Doughty is also a great artist, one whose canvas is music. “He is one of the most original new artists I have heard in a long time. With his unique approach to guitar and his vocal interpretations of traditional and his original tunes, he has managed to create music that is all his own." So says Woody Mann, himself an acknowledged master of the instrument.
