David Smith
Dave is currently working on a new project. The band name is Border Cross www.soundclick.com/bordercross and the forthcoming album titled Last Parade will be available soon.
Dave released his debut album, Call Me, in 2005. A songwriter and musician from Shropshire in the UK, Dave wrote, recorded and mixed the CD over an eighteen month period from 2003 to 2005. The album contains eleven pop/rock songs with strong hooks that get stuck inside your head.
Dave is now in the process of writing and recording his second album, which has a bigger sound with a harder edge to both the sound and the songs. The working title is Last Parade and should be released sometime in 2007. You can hear songs from the album here.
