SALAMANDER '95 official release date: 2/1/2020
This album is songs that were originally recorded in 1995 and forgotten!

1. JELLY (05:06)
This was written and recoreded in the '90s when a lot of song titles had nothing to do with any of the lyrics! Same here, ha! We, as a band, decided it would be cool to NOT have the typical title of having the chorus lyric be the title.

7. WHY DID IT HAPPEN AGAIN (04:48)
We were asked by radio station KWOD in Sacramento to submit a song for a benefit CD.
It was for victims of a big flood that destroyed homes when levies overflowed. I wrote the music and radio listeners sent in lyrics that we had to make fit our song.

I was in this band from 1993 to 1996. We played gigs all over the Sacramento, California and surrounding areas. We made our own CD in 1994 and had it in all the record stores, including all the Tower Records in the area. In 1996 our guitarist quit to go to law school.
I took the opportunity to move to Ashland, Oregon with my wife and began a 10 year period of performing solo bass/vocal gigs. In 2011 after having formed a band and writing dozens of songs, I recorded my first CD as the bandleader with legendary producer Sylvia Massy.
Since then, I've been writing and releasing music, usually with Sylvia producing.

LUCKY DOUG FERGUS BIOGRAPHY
In addition to being a bassist, vocalist, lyricist, songwriter, comedian and good cook, Doug is an accomplished tambourine sharpener. 
Doug is driven to create music that is quirky, fun, thought-provoking, and in some way inspiring. 
He has been inspired by some of his favorite comedians and musicians: Jonathan Winters, George Carlin, Steve Martin, Robin Williams, the Talking Heads, Devo, Weird Al Yankovic, Warren Zevon, Primus and Frank Zappa.

Doug began his music career in 1982 with the Los Angeles band, Split Image and was signed to Allied Artists Records.
In 2012 his band Naked in Public opened for Cyndi Lauper at the Britt Festival in Oregon. 
Most of his songs were recorded and produced by legendary producer Sylvia Massy (Red Hot Chile Peppers, Prince, Tom Petty, Johnny Cash). 

His songs with his bands Naked in Public, Lucky Doug and the Stinkbugs and Lucky Doug Fergus can be found on nearly all digital platforms including Pandora, iTunes, Spotify, Apple Music and have been played on Sirius XM and hundreds of college radio stations across Canada and the US. 

Doug loves puppy dogs, bubble baths, and long candle lit walks on the beach. He believes his role in life is to share his joy for living and his “If life hands you a lemon, make lemonade” outlook. Oh, and he’d like to thank Gosh.

From Jake at Roctober Magazine:
“Odd quirk-rock truth telling through poppy songs that sound like weirdo novelty rock but are really life lessons that are actually funnier than real novelty rock.”
