Album Notes

Francis Doughty is an exciting folk instrumental guitarist who has been playing music since his early teens. Inspired by the likes of Leo Kottke, John Fahey, and a wide range of classical music, Doughty has used those influences to develop his own unique voice on the guitar, which ranges from the thrilling to the haunting.

Doughty's guitar-playing is riveting and instantly engages the audience. Indeed there are a lot of good 6- and 12-string players out there, but it is his masterful song-writing which makes Doughty a true standout.

"Solo acoustic guitarist Francis Doughty is one of the best-kept secrets in town." BOSTON HERALD

Attending a Francis Doughty concert never fails to leave an audience enthralled. His shows present a mix of his own songs, several classic covers by Kottke, as well as arrangements of traditional or jazz pieces-and always a surprise or two. The counterpoint to his music is his endearing stage manner and colorful humor. He makes a genuine connection with the audience.

Showcase Performer at Falcon Ridge Folk Festival 2001 and 2004
