THE DOOBIE DOUBLES IS A DYNAMIC TRIBUTE BAND THAT PAYS HOMAGE TO THE LEGENDARY SOUNDS OF THE DOOBIE BROTHERS, ONE OF THE MOST BELOVED ROCK BANDS OF ALL TIME. THE DOOBIE DOUBLES HAVE QUICKLY ESTABLISHED THEMSELVES AS A PREMIER TRIBUTE ACT, DELIVERING AUTHENTIC RENDITIONS OF CLASSIC HITS WHILE CAPTURING THE SPIRIT AND ENERGY OF LIVE PERFORMANCES. THE INCEPTION OF THE DOOBIE DOUBLES WAS SPARKED BY FOUNDER PETE HOPKINS, WHOSE LOVE FOR THE DOOBIE BROTHERS’ MUSIC INSPIRED HIM TO CREATE A TRIBUTE BAND THAT WOULD RESONATE WITH AUDIENCES. UNDERSTANDING THE ENDURING APPEAL OF THE DOOBIE BROTHERS, PETE SET OUT TO ASSEMBLE A GROUP OF TALENTED MUSICIANS WHO SHARED HIS PASSION. AFTER REACHING OUT TO HIS NETWORK AND PLACING ADS ONLINE, PETE CONNECTED WITH LONGTIME FRIEND AND GUITARIST RAY BERGSTROM, WHOSE INCREDIBLE MUSICIANSHIP AND EXPERIENCE WERE A PERFECT FIT FOR THE PROJECT. AS THE BAND BEGAN TO TAKE SHAPE, PETE SOUGHT A RELIABLE REHEARSAL SPACE AND CONTACTED MIKE LEFFLER, OWNER OF A LOCAL STUDIO. DURING THEIR CONVERSATION, PETE INTRODUCED MIKE AS A POTENTIAL DRUMMER FOR THE BAND, SOLIDIFYING MIKE’S ROLE IN THE LINEUP. WITH THE RHYTHM SECTION IN PLACE, PETE’S SEARCH CONTINUED. HE POSTED AN AD SPECIFICALLY FOR PERCUSSIONISTS, WHICH LED TO RICK ERBE JOINING THE TEAM. RICK’S ENTHUSIASM AND TALENT FOR PRECISION PLAYING ADDED DEPTH TO THE BAND’S SOUND. THE LINEUP WAS COMPLETED WITH THE ADDITION OF BASSIST SHELDON BONADA, WHOSE VERSATILE PLAYING STYLE COMPLEMENTED THE GROUP PERFECTLY, AND KEYBOARDIST DANIEL OSTERSTOCK, WHO BROUGHT A RICH LAYER OF HARMONIES AND MELODIES TO THEIR MUSIC. FROM THE BEGINNING, THE DOOBIE DOUBLES WERE COMMITTED TO CREATING A SETLIST THAT SHOWCASED THE ICONIC TRACKS THAT MADE THE DOOBIE BROTHERS FAMOUS. WITH SONGS LIKE “LISTEN TO THE MUSIC,” “BLACK WATER,” “WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES,” AND “LONG TRAIN RUNNIN’,” THE BAND QUICKLY GAINED A REPUTATION FOR THEIR HIGH-ENERGY PERFORMANCES AND TIGHT HARMONIES. EACH MEMBER CONTRIBUTES THEIR UNIQUE STYLE AND CHARISMA, ENSURING THAT EVERY SHOW IS AN ENGAGING EXPERIENCE FOR AUDIENCES. AS THEY CONTINUE TO GROW, THE DOOBIE DOUBLES HAVE PLAYED A VARIETY OF VENUES, FROM INTIMATE CLUBS TO LARGER FESTIVALS, CONSISTENTLY RECEIVING PRAISE FOR THEIR MUSICIANSHIP AND SHOWMANSHIP. THE BAND’S COMMITMENT TO HONORING THE LEGACY OF THE DOOBIE BROTHERS WHILE CREATING A FUN AND MEMORABLE ATMOSPHERE HAS WON THEM A LOYAL FANBASE. WITH PLANS FOR MORE PERFORMANCES AND NEW MUSIC ON THE HORIZON, THE DOOBIE DOUBLES ARE POISED TO TAKE THEIR TRIBUTE TO NEW HEIGHTS, ENSURING THAT THE TIMELESS MUSIC OF THE DOOBIE BROTHERS LIVES ON FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS TO ENJOY.
