From Burbank (SD) to Burbank (CA)!
Douglas was born of humble beginnings in a small town in Southeastern South Dakota. A little town called Burbank!
He didn't much care for chores and longed to move away to the city.
He moved to MANHATTAN, New York to attended The American Musical and Dramatic Academy , (or AMDA) A Musical Theater conservatory “Best time of my life!”~ Douglas Roegiers
Post AMDA Doug moved Out West! Los Angeles! Only for a few years, to be chewed up and spat out...... "THAT'S LIFE!"
After a
three year hiatus, and some domestic training, he returned to Los Angeles, and has chosen to throw his hat
in to the ring of the late “Great American crooners" . Bing Crosby and Louie
Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin and Dean Martin name some of his
favorites.
In the beginning, his choice to become a singer was giving some notoriety when LA MAGAZINE gave him the title of "Best of LA"! http://www.lamag.com/guides/bola/Details.aspx?id=5393
He recently became the new 'front man' for a 9 piece Swing Band called 'Phat Cat Swinger!"
See pictures and videos of them on my link, or check out www.phatcatswinger.com for more information.
He now
sings regularly in Regional Five Star Restaurants and Lounges, and looks forward to what his career holds in store for him!

Swing by and say Hi!
If you stick around until the end you’ll probably hear him say, “Thank you very much, and may all of your hours, be Happy Hours!”
