About Me

I play guitar for The Twilight Singers and The Gutter Twins, make records and mess around with stuff. I'm a good listener but shitty with the details. I'm supposed to be a Leo but don't feel like one.

I've been lucky enough to work with fine folk like Greg Dulli and Mark Lanegan, Emerson Hart (Tonic), Jeff Klein, Mike Napolitano, Joseph Arthur, Cyril Neville and Speech (Arrested Development), and am known to darken the occasional stage in the French Quarter... if you make it through the Dukes of Hazzard movie you can see me playing acoustic guitar with Willie Nelson. But don't rent that movie on my account, it's a turd.

If you send me a friend request and I've never met you, at least send me a message. If you want to stalk me, there's not much to glean here that isn't already public knowledge. I love my friends and my life in New Orleans, and if you fuck with me they will hunt you down and kill you. Slowly.

My Interests

the what and the why. sometimes the who.

I'd like to meet:

Here's the Twilight Singers doing "Teenage Wristband" in Belgiuml:
...and "Sideways in Reverse" with Mark Lanegan at Warsaw in Brooklyn.

Music:

Bio, blog and other scraps at www.daveaux.com .

THE CONTINUING SAGA OF CEILING KITTY

WTF?! Another cat came through the ceiling tonight, but Greg was cool enough (and tall enough) to manhandle it outta the ceiling and send it packing. Apparently feral cats have been the culprit for th...
