Doug Gabriel, Branson’s most awarded entertainer and vocalist, is celebrating the Doug Gabriel Show’s 10th season with an all new show for 2003, a collector T-shirt featuring the unique guitar made from a muffler which has become Doug’s emblem and various special events are planned throughout the season.
Doug’s 2003 show has been declared “marvelous entertainment” by Music Country News. Doug’s formula for a successful production has continued for a decade and this year’s production is, according to critics, one of his best. Doug has created a new show with new costuming and an abundance of variety with traditional and new country, classical, ’50s, gospel, patriotic, instrumentals, laughter, fun and a romp through TV land.
“A new gospel song titled, ‘You,’ that I wrote is receiving praise. The TV land segment, which we are having fun presenting during the second half of the show, has also received positive comments,” said Doug.
“Because of my fans’ demands, I’ve brought back Unchained Melody, a song that hasn’t been in my show for a few years,” said Doug. Also returning to the show is the famous Mufftar, the guitar made from a 1969 Thunderbird muffler. Fans’ delight in the unusual instrument is evident with the flash of the cameras when Doug strums the first note on stage. Doug is producing a new “Smash-T-shirt” themed around the Mufftar.
Doug along with his wife Cheryl have added more duets including Every Time Two Fools Collide and Heaven’s Just a Sin Away. The audience is held enthralled by Cheryl’s solos which includes a salute to Patsy Cline. Son Joshua is featured on the drums and bass guitar while son Jordan makes his singing debut in a delightful music video. Daughter, Jasmine continues to steal hearts with her innocence and sweet voice.
Royce Elliott, considered America’s funniest, clean comedian, is a hilarious addition to the Doug Gabriel Show. Elliott has traveled all over the United States and Canada opening for such stars as Barbara Mandrell, Randy Travis, Lou Rawls, the late Conway Twitty, Bobby Vinton, the Gatlin Brothers, the Statler Brothers and many, many more. He has appeared on the Ralph Emery Show more than 25 times, been a guest on Crook and Chase, Nashville Now and the Statler Brothers Show. A popular corporate, seminar and convention speaker, he’s appeared with celebrities Frank Sinatra, Rich Little, Buddy Hackett and Ann Jillien to name a few and corporations including McDonalds, Caterpillar and Coca Cola.
