Songs he has recorded strings on have aired on many shows, including WB's ONE TREE HILL, NBC's CHUCK, and NBC's THIS IS US.

His music has been described as "the perfect cinematic companion" (The Independent Critic), "a modern symphony filled with great crescendo peaks followed by valleys of whispery silences" (The Star-Telegram), "the best thing about the film - hands down" (SA Current), and "providing powerful, frequently mournful, occasionally artfully angular lines that add depth and texture" (FW Weekly).

Douglas has recorded with many artists including Alan, Smile Smile, The February Chorus, Bill Callahan (Smog), and Clinic. He has also performed live with Black Tie Dynasty, Calhoun, Flickerstick, and The Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash at various venues and outdoor music festivals including the Voodoo Music Festival in New Orleans.

Douglas was born near San Francisco and grew up in Wiesbaden, San Antonio and Dallas. He graduated from the University of North Texas with a BA in Music Composition and is a member of ASCAP. He currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife Nat who owns a store that sells items made from independent artists called New Profanity.

Hopefully he's writing some cool music right now but who the hell knows.
