For many years David lived and worked in New York City, both solo in clubs and then with a band. He developed a loyal fan base all through relentless performances and word of mouth - no label publicity, no major press, no glitz. David is about what's real, and what's real is a song that will touch some aspect of a person's life and make an indelible mark. His songs make you yearn, make you visit other places, and make you feel that you are not the only one doing so.
In 2002, David relocated to Austin, TX. He has since appeared on numerous radio and local TV shows, had two videos in rotation on Austin Music Network/ME Television, recorded his third EP, his first full length CD, signed a publishing deal with North Star Media in Los Angeles, and developed his most dedicated and thorough following to date. Performing regularly, David has carved out a niche as not only a melodic and sincere tunesmith, but also one who performs with great energy and will command a crowd. At every show he converts new people who have never heard or seen him before. His mailing list has ballooned. He plays a brand of rock and roll that is not limited to such traditional genres as Americana, classic rock, or singer-songwriter restraint. It is a brand that celebrates all of rock music's melodic past, and one which is still familiar to those who love rock and roll, and all the richness and depth it has to offer.
In February of 2007, David released "Big Red Sun", a 13 song CD featuring such guests as Jon Dee Graham, Cindy Cashdollar, Redd Volkaert, Warren Hood, and others. To date, he has recorded 3 EPs, as well as Big Red Sun, and he sells them all online and at shows. David grew up in Toronto, Canada, but has made the US his target audience. His fan base is currently made up largely of groups of loyal supporters, but as he continues to release music and widen his audience, the larger and more universal his appeal will become.
