"We've been able to accomplish quite a bit in a short period of time, and we are now looking ahead to Doug's future. We're planning on building upon our initial successes with indie and international radio by getting Doug back on the road and into the studio for a 2013 label release."

His debut single, "More Than Just a Farm" topped several indie charts, with the follow up, "It's All Country," released in July, currently climbing the charts and receiving worldwide airplay. Doug has received press in major news publications and webzines, while being interviewed by some of the most influential music-related talk shows. MTS Management Group has also been responsible for facilitating the growth of Doug's social media pages, now numbering a combined 18,000-plus connections on Facebook, Twitter and Myspace. In addition, two of Doug's recent music videos have more than 20,000 Youtube views.
