Dougherty was born in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn and grew up in the suburbs of Connecticut. He started to play the piano as a child. In high school he experimented with keyboards and synthesizers. A jazz piano teacher lent him a Yamaha DXZ when he was a freshman; he said it “blew his mind.”
He attended Princeton University where he planned to study electrical engineering. He changed his major after he realized that his interest in engineering was limited. He investigated several majors, including art history, economics and religion, before he decided to major in music. At Princeton, much of the music program was academic; it focused on classical composition, musicology, and music history although it also included jazz and world music.
