Doug Deming & The Jewel Tones at Cortez Kitchen

Doug Deming & The Jewel Tones play traditional blues, West Coast and Texas swing, and early 1950s roots rock. This is real deal rockin’ rhythm & blues.

Deming is an American blues and roots guitarist/vocalist, born and raised in the Detroit area, currently residing on the Gulf coast of Florida. He is the 2013 recipient of the Blues Blast Music Awards’ Sean Costello Rising Star Award.

Drawing influence from greats like T-Bone Walker, Charlie Christian and Robert Jr. Lockwood, Deming’s traditional taste and style are evident in his original music. He has four recordings of primarily original tunes to his credit, including his latest release, “Complicated Mess,” on EllerSoul Records.

Throughout his 20+ year career Deming has enjoyed touring and recording with many top blues artists, including Kim Wilson, Gary Primich, Lazy Lester, Alberta Adams, AC Reed and Johnny “Yard Dog” Jones to name a few; as well as with his own band featuring various artists such as Greg “Fingers” Taylor, Terry Hanck, Steve Guyger and Dennis Gruenling.
