Doug Chaffin

Bluegrass acoustic bassist from West Virginia. Doug Chaffin joined The 1937 Flood in 1999. Doug has been playing music around here for nearly 50 years. Tri-State Area music lovers may recall The Montereys, the '60s rock and rockabilly band named after a rather nice Mercury automobile. That was Doug on lead guitar. He has played country, rock and swing and he was also a regular on stage with the late, great J.P. and Annadeene Fraley throughout their extensive career. He remained close to them. In fact, Doug played bass on the fiddler's last CD with Betty Vornbrock, called "Side by Side" (Burning Wolf-002).
