In the present work, making use of the hyperbolic tangent method a complex travelling wave solution to the KdV-Burgers equation is obtained. It is observed that the real part of the solution is the combination of a shock and a solitary wave whereas the imaginary part is the product of a shock with a solitary wave. By imposing some restrictions on the field variable at infinity, two complex waves, i.e., right going and left going waves with specific wave speed are obtained.
