Doug Anderson (born August 31, 1973 in Anderson, Indiana) is an American contemporary Christian singer. He is best known as Ernie Haase & Signature Sound's long time baritone since the quartet's formation. He took a break from the group in 2015 to pursue a solo career,[2] but has returned as of November 2021.

A while later, Haase set out on his own and invited Anderson to join him. Ernie Haase & Signature Sound officially formed in 2003. Anderson released his debut album "Dreamin' Wide Awake", on May 3, 2011.[4] Doug formed part of the American Christian music trio Cana's Voice in 2016.
