Dave Douglas

David Alan Douglas (born August 19, 1979) is an American musician, most widely known for being the drummer of the American rock band Relient K.

Musical career Douglas joined Relient K after their former drummer, Stephen Cushman, departed in late 2000. Douglas played the drums and provided background vocals for the band for seven years. Douglas announced on October 18, 2007, that he would be resigning from Relient K on December 29, 2007. He started pursuing new musical avenues, and he started devoting as much time as possible to Gypsy Parade. That band has been reformed and now called Attack Cat.

Douglas rejoined Relient K in October 2014 for the MMHMM 10th Anniversary Tour, providing both drums and backup vocals. This marked the first time he played with the band since his departure in 2007. He continued to serve as a touring and session member before being made an official member again in 2016.

His style often focuses on heavy snare hits on the beat and complex kick patterns.

Back when he joined Relient K, Douglas was also filling in as a guitarist for Ace Troubleshooter, whose frontman was future Relient K bassist John Warne.

Agnes

Douglas had a solo side project, Agnes. His first three songs debuted on Mono vs Stereo's My Other Band, Vol. 1, which was released in June 2006.
