Music was in him from a very young age. He started playing the trumpet in elementary school, which led him to the Jazz Ensemble at Pinole Valley High School. In High School he explored many different areas. He learned the French horn for the Wind Ensemble. In his junior and senior years he became the drum major and led the PV marching band to many events including homecoming and the football games. In 1990, Jason David began writing music with friend Matt Gaspari. Together with a notebook and a piano they would collaborate. He would sing the melodies that slowly became songs. One day with the help of a band director from a local college they found home to a recording studio, which would produce 4 songs. One of the songs would be chosen to be published and distributed by an Independent Name under a Major Label and appear on local Bay Area radio stations. This would place Jason David among Grammy worthy musicians in the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences where he became a member. He also joined ASCAP in the mid 1990's and started his own publishing company called Jay Bug Publishing. He then continued on his musical journey leading him to award winning producer RJ Ross. Together with RJ Ross, Matt Gaspari, and Gabriel Herscu they wrote and recorded the song "Beyond This Smile". It has yet to be released publicly until now. Jason David writes, records, and produces music for him and other local artists. He works in a studio that he built from ground up. It is his personal domain and shelter from the storm.
