AUGIE MEYERS’ style, with his Vox Continental, is one of music’s most distinctive keyboard sounds around. Augie can be heard with the SIR DOUGLAS QUINTET, TEXAS TORNADOS, his own solo efforts, as well as on landmark albums by BOB DYLAN (”Time Out of Mind” and “Love and Theft”) and JOHN HAMMOND (“Wicked Grin”). Echoes of MEYERS’ style and sound can be heard in the music of THE DOORS, THE KINKS, and THE ANIMALS, as well as THE BEATLES just to name a few.
Rolling out of San Antonio, Texas in the early 60’s, the SIR DOUGLAS QUINTET – a musical partnership formed with DOUG SAHM – brought such hit songs as “Mendocino” and “She’s About a Mover.” The fusion of Tex-Mex, Conjunto and soulful rock, along with the power of MEYERS’ distinctive Vox organ, created an impact that is still felt in rock ‘n’ roll today.
While the SIR DOUGLAS QUINTET never broke up or succumbed to the lure of the oldies circuit, when MEYERS and his musical cohorts wanted to do something different, they did it. That led to the formation of the TEXAS TORNADOS and a Grammy award-winning South Texas sound.
