Overview

D Buggs, I am a new artist on the scene but old on the horizon in the entertainment field. I am a songwriter and R & B Performer. My sound is similar to the likes of Smokey Robinson and Eddie Kendricks. I am versatile performer that can sing and dance with a live band or with tracks. My performance is electric with that Motown and Old School R&B Feel.

About

D Buggs has been around as long as some of the favorite artists born but with his up and down ride in the entertainment field is a story by itself. Grew up in Houston, Texas and at the age of sixteen opened shows with the late Ted Taylor performing in groups with guys twice his age. D Buggs formed groups throughout his junior and senior high school years performing around the state of Texas and Louisiana. After graduating from high school, he joined a group with his brother who was also talented, also sung in school with the once Archie Bell and the Drells. The group formed was called Justice which was the first group out of Houston to sign with a major label (Epic CBS). Justice opened acts for such groups as Bob Marley & Whalers, Temptations, Tavares, Natalie Cole, Nancy Wilson, B B King, Bobby Bland, Manhattans, Dramatics and the lists goes on…

After signing with Epic CBS they recorded the album with great promising writers such as Leo Sayers, Steve Winwood (which they did the remake of “Gimme Some Lovin’” and Leo Sayers, “Easy to Love” which hit the billboard top charts. Other writers such as jerry Butler song, “Everything’s Cool”, Ambrosia which Justice recorded first, “That’s How Much I Feel”. After completing the album, the five men vocal group, Justice returned to Houston.

D Buggs (Donny) hoping someone still love that soulful unique first tenor. My performances are upbeat, soulful, and electric for those that still appreciate that Old School R & B sound, the classics, and the Motown generation.
