About Me

I’m David Cooke - a family man who writes the music, sings, plays all the instruments and records/produces/engineers all you hear.

Born in Liverpool, I now live in Devon.

I have been hiding for far too many years and 2007 has seen me bringing my music to the world for the first time.

Apart from the music you hear here, I can also compose film scores, from classical style to very dark mood music.

Hope you enjoy my musical journey.

While you are here, check out my artwork too!

I wish you peace and love.

David.
