NOTE:
I've added some piano "instrumental only" songs on my music page. They are labeled as Piano in the title. Most are located towards the bottom of the page.
Hi everyone! I'm a 49 year old part-time musician/songwriter with several years of various experiences. My ultimate goal is to have some songs published and recorded.
All recordings of the songs were recorded with a simple cassette tape recorder.
I'll try to keep the "News" section updated as things develop.
Band/artist history
I really don't have a band. I'm just doing the church gig and freelance work. In my late teens and early 20's I played in a few rock bands in the Pennsylvania and Baltimore areas.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I play weekly at church, a few times a year with our local symphony orchestra and some other freelance percussion, drumset or keyboard gigs. I'm a music director at church, where I've been for 20 years. I have two wonderful choirs and a great classical tracker organ to play. I also write some music for the choirs.
Your musical influences
This is huge.... it goes from Chant to today's music. I'm not a polka music fan. My main influences are rock, jazz, classical and country. I recently found I like country as it still allows for decent writing with melody and harmony. There is an understandable story and.... it feels good.
What equipment do you use?
Slingerland drums.....old ones. Alvarez acoustic guitar. Cable and Sons baby grand piano.
Anything else?
I hope you like my music.

Thanks Dave
This reminded me of Harry Chapin, has a good folksy feeling.Good job on the guitar too, man! Keep the music coming.
Peace
Dave,
You're coming along very nicely on the guitar. Not an easy thing to do without plenty of idle time. I'm glad I picked it up when I was a kid. Good song, a very true to life lament. I can relate.
Keep th emusic coming!
Peace
Hey Dave,
Just listened to "My Job", it's true every word you wrote. My job's kept on the road for 2 years in a row, it's wearing me out! Keep the music coming.
Peace
great rhythm, now all it needs is a third hand for a lilting upper melody...
