Doug Collier's life and interests both in and outside of music have been, to say the least, eclectic. Classically trained on tuba, Doug started playing bass at age 13 and embarked on a professional career at 19.  He has toured with the legendary Bo Diddley and has been a sideman with the likes of Terry Sylvester of The Hollies and his childhood and life-long friend, Chuck Jackson of The Downchild Blues Band.  In addition to being a member of Rave On, Doug also plays bass for The Marauders and the heavy metal band Slingshot.

Doug is currently an elementary school teacher but he has also worked as a commercial pilot, ski instructor, and sound editor. He keeps in shape by engaging in hockey, lacrosse, fencing, tennis, and skiing—all of which help add "muscle" to his playing style.
