DAVID PROSPER:
Singer-songwriter David Prosper initially emerged in the dance music arena of the late 1990's and early 2000's with a soulful house project known as 'Bignoise', working with prolific production teams such as Swe-Team and Brian "Keys" Tharme. As a solo-artist David has worked with some well known names such as Mica Paris, Noel McKoy, Eric Roberson, Vanessa Simon & Joy Rose.

Singing styles such as SlowJams, Contemporary Soul & R&B Brian McKnight, Jodeci, H-Town Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gay and Ginuwine are some of the artists which influence Deke which results in a musical outcome that Deke describes as "a combination of midnight soul, a hint of smooth R&B and velvet-laced vocals woven in harmony".

Contemporary Soul Scene. Bringing together Singers, Players, movers

knowledgeable crowd who are passionate about their music.
