I have been in the music business for more than 30 years. From musician and song writer to producer, recording studio owner, music instructor and artist manager. I have even designed websites, t-shirts and album covers for musicians and bands.

Today I'm more involved in the music business than ever, playing in local bands, producing, writing, recording and editing music and other audio for the corporate sector as well as individuals, teaching music and some graphic design. Making music is still by far my favotite.

Working With Others

How I Work:

I'm very flexible and my schedule varies almost daily so it's always best to contact me for specifics.

I'm mainly here to be hired for sessions as a producer, musician, vocalist or engineer. However I do enjoy the creation process of making music and I will also contribute to a session once in awhile for free. I honestly don't have the time to just play for free and I'm sure that everyone here who doesn't have a day job and even some that do can understand this. Music is my job as well as my passion.

With that said, it's great to be here and I look forward to getting to know and working with as many of you as I can.

GOD BLESS & keep on trackin.

Dave

Experience:

30 years as a lead guitarist and vocalist in numerous bands and sessions, 25 years as a producer and project studio owner/engineer.

Dave, your interpretation of Bar Fight was astounding and I greatly appreciate your contribution. the sound is fantastic and I thank you for joining the session and taking it to new levels. I only wish that I lived in Arizona again, or you were out here, we could really rock the crowds. Maybe some day we will grace the same stage. Thanks...Kicker
