began abusing piano at age three. His ardent fans range from his mother to Daniel Lanois, who once said, “who's he”. David is also a brilliant guitarist and a soul stirring singer whose songwriting style has been described as “one part Beatles, one part Tom Waits, a dash of love, add salty tears, stir and let mellow for 30 minutes before serving”. David is highly in demand for studio and live session work and was the lead composer on MTV’s “The Andy Dick Show” Jan 2000 Feb 2002. David’s debut solo CD “In The Rough” is now in stores everywhere and in his live one man show he covers many great singer/songwriters with faithful renditions that leave audiences spellbound
