Al Doughty is an English musician and bassist. He is primarily known for being a member since 1988 of the alternative rock band Jesus Jones, in which he continues to be active, as of 2021.

Career

Originally the bassist for the London based rock band Jesus Jones, Doughty later became the bassist for Jon Langford's band Skull Orchard, the Waco Brothers, and Dean Schlabowske's band Dollar Store. Of his unorthodox bass style, Doughty said, "It's all nervous energy. I really have no idea where I'm going next with something. I don't know anything about theory. It's all new to me every time I play".

Personal life

Doughty attended Beechen Cliff School in Bath, Somerset, England between 1977 and 1982. He is currently based in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, United States with his wife.
