DubbHeads is the "not-so-official" fan site for blues great Doug MacLeod. It was formed with two goals in mind:

1 - Provide a centralized web presence for a "grass roots" movement to organize votes for Doug MacLeod in the 2006 Blue Music Awards. These awards (which are better known by their former title "W. C. Handy Awards") are voted on by blues fans who are members of the Blues Foundation. (http://www.blues.org).. We are ACTIVELY engouraging every blues fan we meet to JOIN and VOTE. OK. The truth is, we're encouraging every mammal we meet to join and vote. Surely the Blues Foundation doesn't discriminate against Blue Dogs and their canine friends.

2 - Provide a web meeting place and information archive for fans of acoustic blues in general and Doug MacLeod in particular. We also intend to expand a bit to cover other terrific blues players who join Doug from time to time, including Denny Croy, Steve Mugalian and Dave Kida.

The site is NEW. The idea came up in a conversation on January 6th, 2006. What you see here is a rapidly changing work in progress. We're actively looking for volunteers to drive the voting effort and support the site. If you'd like to learn more, send off an email to info@dubbheads.com.

Why "DUBB" heads, you may ask. That's a good question. A good answer, as told by Doug himself is here.

Note that we're "un-official". That means we're in no way affiliated with Doug himself, his record company or booking agency. You can find those folks through Doug's "official" web site at http://www.doug-macleod.com. Having said that, we're serious fans of the man and his music, and we're proud to call him a friend.
