Doug Figgs is a horseshoer, a cowboy, and a Western music singer/songwriter. In twenty plus years of shoeing horses he has earned the title of “Certified Journeyman Farrier”, the highest level attainable through the American Farrier’s Association. In the last few years he has turned his attention to his love of music with the emphasis on Western themes. As a member of the Western Music Association he has already been nominated for the WMA "Crescendo Award" three times. Also, as a member of the trio "The Cowboy Way", the group won the 2014 "Harmony Trio Award" at the WMA convention. His song “It’s All About the Horses” went as high as number two on the Western music charts. Another song of his, “Dancing With Matilda”, was a top five nominee for the New Mexico Music Awards “Western Song of the Year” and also, along with his song “All Because of You”, was a top ten finalist at the Tucson Folk Festival. He has toured the Southwest extensively and continues to turn out his own variety of Western music, from hard driving songs with a tinge of southern rock, to beautiful ballads and everything in between.

"Doug Figgs is an outstanding singer and songwriter. He has a unique style of singing that is a pleasure to hear. His CD "Some of my favorites" is an excellent arrangement of old classics and great cowboy songs. Doug is an authentic cowboy singer who delivers great singing and music that you will not want to miss."
       ------Steve Porter

   "A key element in the believability of any Western/Cowboy music performer is the genuineness of that performer, and in Doug Figgs, I saw not only a genuine performer, genuine singer, but a genuine Westerner who's experience and lifetime of work with cattle and horses gives him a realism that is wonderfully apparent. His guitar playing and singing are solid and confident, and he portrays what those of us in Western music hope to preserve and promote. I heartily endorse Doug as the real deal in Western Music!"
