He began his music career as a regular performer at local college bars in and around Gainesville, Florida while receiving his MBA at the University of Florida in 1994. The world of business took a backseat as he began fulfilling his love for writing and performing his own music that has taken him to stages from New York to Florida for the past decade.
Performing solo or with his band, Doug Segree has been a mainstay in the Mid-Atlantic region sharing the stage with acts like Matchbox 20, Sister Hazel, Less Than Jake, Dave Mason of Traffic, Pat McGee Band, Derek Trucks, The Coral Reef Band, George Clinton and P-Funk, and Mark Broussard. For the past eight seasons, the Doug Segree Band has been performing at every Washington Redskins post game celebration at Fed Ex Field. Doug has performed the National Anthem three times including a nationally televised performance on the NFL Network (redskins vs. Bears 12/06/08). He has also performed courtside at various Washington Wizards basketball games at the Verizon Center. He has been a part of the "Dewey Tradition" for the past ten summers, helping create the Suicide Sunday afternoon deck parties at the world famous Starboard in Dewey Beach, DE.
