Hey
Everyone.
So
you want to
know a
little bit
more about
me?
Well,
my name is
Dave.
I
figure
that’s a
good place
to start.
I’m
a
26-year-old
singer-songwriter
from a
relatively
small
Indiana town
called
Anderson.
I
grew up
listening to
Springsteen,
Motown, and
The Beach
Boys, so my
writing
tends to
reflect
that.
Some
of my other
influences
include
Bruce
Hornsby,
Elton John,
John Mayer,
Radiohead,
Sigur Ros,
Johnny Cash,
Coldplay,
The
Wallflowers,
and The
Damnwells.
I
also love
film
scores/soundtracks
because this
music proves
that words
are not
always
necessary to
express a
very
specific
emotion.
If you hadn’t noticed already, I offer out my music on a “Pay What You Want” basis. I do this simply because I don’t believe that a price tag should ever come between you and the songs. I think too many people have forgotten what really matters in the music business. Is it the music, or the business? I say the music. So here it is, no strings attached. Enjoy! If even a fraction of one my songs resonates with somebody else (maybe you), consider that my “paycheck”. That is so much more important and fulfilling than being “rich” or “famous” or any of that other crap musicians tend to care about these days. It is for this reason that I offer my music out for free. Pay only if you want to. So go tell your friends, family, or that random guy/girl that keeps winking at you in the video store checkout line. Everybody is welcome. My 2010 release, This is My World - Part 1 is the first of several 5-song EPs. Originally I planned on releasing a new EP every 4 months, but then I was asked to produce three different albums and had to put my music on the back-burner for awhile. These songs are based off of the situations and ponders that I find myself consumed by on a day-to-day basis. I am in no way trying to follow a central theme with this project. Part 1 consists of five songs that touch on a variety of topics: the simplicity of love, the complexity of life, addiction, corruption, and personal conviction. Each song tells a story of its own, but collectively they define who I am as an individual. There will most likely be a Part 2 over the course of the next year or so. Before I put that out, I plan on recording another Full Length album if possible. I've learned that it is hard to make promises in the music business. Some of us have to have our hands in many different things to survive and that is where I found myself in early 2010. I have some new songs that I am very eager to share with you, so I'm hoping I can record some of my stuff this summer. If you like what you hear and would like the music to keep coming, join the street team. We can't do it without you! That's the end of my bio. dave
