The song “Middle Eastern Dawn” by David Weiss was featured on a Sept. 6 A & E Channel documentary titled “Deadly Dust: The Toxic Aftermath of 9/11.”
The documentary investigates health care problems faced by first-response rescuers who inhaled toxic dust during the 9/11 tragedy.
For the past 10 years, Weiss has worked as an IT Specialist at Western Washington University while composing, recording and performing original music. He previously attended Western as a music-performance major and studied classical guitar with David Feingold.
He also founded a nonprofit organization for local musicians called BIMA (Bellingham Independent Music Association).
The documentary was produced by Bill Kurtis Productions for the A & E television network and will be made available on DVD. Check local listings for show times.================================================
I'm a real music geek. I used to play in an 80's rock cover band called New Moon Rising. I sing, play guitar, write songs, record them and have a lot fun with it. I played on a few people's album projects until I self-released my debut instrumental acoustic guitar CD in 1999 called Finger Noise. Since then I've played two other bands, Jacapito (we call ourselves an "Ambient World Jazz" group) and The Letter Street Band. I've got a hard rock band on the side with three of my buddies called CLEAR AS DAY. We are currently recording some loud rocking tracks.

Who I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet musicians, producers, dancers, film directors, writers, artists, actors and well, I guess anyone who loves music and is passionate about it.
