MacDougall has released two self-produced CDs-IF WALLS COULD TALK and FOR A FEW TALES MORE-that have been available at his live shows and now from his website. Known for mesmerizing audiences with emotionally-driven melodies and resonating vocals, he will be finishing a studio version of "Stay," one of the standout tracks from IF WALLS COULD TALK, with an eye toward servicing it to radio in conjunction with his next U.S. tour. Music Connection Magazine wrote of him: "MacDougall's lyrics are like those out of a storybook, painting the picture of love's harsh realities through song. With soothing harmonies and bright guitar strums, MacDougall is somehow able to turn the pain of love's emotion into something bittersweet."
Originally from the fishing town of Grimsby in the north of England, MacDougall emerged from the open mic night circuit in London that has spawned new acoustic English artists in the last two years. His ability to couple a strong lyrical narrative with a memorable melody has enabled him to establish an international fan base.
