Douglas James is no stranger to the entertainment business.....which is a nice way to say he is long in the tooth.  Whether playing Lead Guitar in the Grand Rapids based Union Guns, or fronting his own band, Douglas is a consummate entertainer.  

Douglas cut his musical teeth playing lead guitar in the 80's with a number of Southern Michigan rock bands. Most notably, regional acts Private Sector and Whyte Lyze.  After doing a stint on the road with Minneapolis based "The Trouble With Eve". Douglas landed a gig playing drums with one of the most entertaining mid-west bandleaders,  Billy Zack and the Billy Zack Attack. 

Returning to Michigan in the mid 90's Douglas performed with a handfull of bands in southern Michigan again.  IN 2004, Douglas set out on his own, forming "The Douglas James Band".  This country/rock quartet performed shows throughout mid-west Michigan until 2013 when Douglas joined forces with Grand Rapids Based "Union Guns".  a union (no pun intended) that has become a crowd favorite from Chicago to Pittsburgh.
