TIA: What is your musical background?
DOUG BRINEY: I grew up singing in church, with children’s choirs and youth choirs, through high school I was also involved in band and played the trumpet. When I graduated high school I enrolled at a small Bible College in California and graduated there with my BA in Music. I then spent the last 26 years leading worship music in church and still do today. Country was the music I was always drawn to and listened to so what to me is kinda funny is in leading worship it always comes out a little country.
TIA: Why do you want to record and release your own music?
DB: Putting out a CD or Album was something I had dreamt of most of my adult life. I always thought I would be recording a Gospel album though, when I finally pulled the trigger what came out was my first project, “It’s All Country.” The title sums it up pretty clear, it was not something I really planned but rather I just recorded the songs that really I connected with. That is not to say I don’t connect with the Gospel music and hope to do a Country Gospel EP in the near future. What I found after putting my first project out was I could still have a very positive influence through my music.
