Rhythm

Doug Connah
Instrument: Guitar
Occupation: Lawyer (retired)
Residence: Baltimore City
Music Influences: Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller, Freddie Green
Anecdotes: My favorite gig; My friend Patrice and I once opened a show with the duet “Baby It’s Cold Outside”. I’m 5’5” and she’s a full foot taller at 6’5”, so we reversed the parts. I sang “I really must go…” and she sang “But Baby It’s Cold Outside”. We brought the house down.
Other: “Can’t play fast, won’t play loud.” The great guitarist, Jim Hall said that, and I agree.
