The Biggest-Sounding 2-Horn Section in the Business - whether appearing together or with a larger horn section as the Providence Horns, Doug "Mr. Low" James & Sax Gordon have contributed the solid, rocking horn section sound and solos to countless performances and recordings by some of today's most popular and acclaimed Blues, Jazz, and R&B performers.

     American music legends such as Kansas City swing pianist Jay McShann, Memphis rocker Rosco Gordon, Texas blues shouter Jimmy "T99" Nelson, Chicago blues harp-master Billy Boy Arnold, and New Orleans soul queen Betty Harris, as well as modern masters like Kim Wilson, Duke Robillard, Bryan Lee, Debbie Davies, and Jerry Portnoy have all been backed on record by Doug & Gordon.
