Cajun raised in a cowboy town, Sara Douga is country music.
While capturing audiences of all ages, Douga is a beacon of light for traditional country music lovers and has been credited for having a real and timeless sound.
Before moving to Nashville in 2019, Douga self-released her debut record; Boots, Bras, and Drawers which was quickly recognized by Country Music People Magazine and BBC Radio. While still fairly new to town, Douga’s heroes have already taken notice. Her first cut as a songwriter came from the legendary Jim Lauderdale on his country album, From Another World, which launched Douga straight into the spotlight at The Grand Ole Opry Stage . Lauderdale has since recorded five of his and Douga’s co-written songs.
Amidst the height of the 2020 Pandemic, Douga gave her audience a dose of happiness. She released a lighthearted, acoustic EP, Lines, accompanied with a witty music video. Generously supported by CMT, SiriusXM ‘The Outlaw’, and CountryLine TV, Douga’s “Lines” has established a highly engaged global presence.
Right behind Lines, came Joe & Gin, a fully produced studio EP. The title track made its world premiere on Bob Harris’ BBC Radio2 Country Show, and spring boarded a load of support from Country Rebel, WSM’s Coffee, Country, & Cody, SiriusXM, and multiple Spotify editorial playlists.
In 2023 Douga had her first chart topping success as a songwriter with Australian rock legend, Ella Hooper, on her latest record, Small Town Temple, which debuted at Number 1 on the ARIA Country Charts as well as Number 1 on iTune's Rock Charts. Douga helped pin the title track, "Small Town Temple", and the first single "Old News"; a song revealing the deep truths of Ella's story.
