Originally convened to breathe life into Doug Preston’s solo debut in 2017, Doug Preston and the Soul Searchers have since undergone a remarkable transformation, blossoming into an indomitable musical force in their own right. At the helm is the charismatic Singer/Songwriter Doug Preston, complemented by a collective of accomplished musicians drawn from the ranks of Arizona’s legendary bands, including The Pistoleros, Ghetto Cowgirl, and Chuck Hall and the Brick Wall, Truckers on Speed and newcomers Sliced Limes. Together, they’ve become an undeniable tour de force.

In 2019, they unveiled their debut single, “What Will Be,” providing a tantalizing glimpse into their potential as a musical juggernaut before the world changing events of 2020.

As of 2025 the band is on hiatus.
