About Me

Dave is a Rocket Scientist by day (as much as there is such a thing) and a songwriter as often as he can be. Along with Donny Grace, he serves as an area Co-Coordinator of the North Alabama NSAI (Nashville Songwriters Association International) chapter.

He began playing guitar when he was 9 years old. He briefly took piano lessons and he played the trumpet in high school. He played guitar with friends in various garage bands throughout the years. Somewhere along the way the desire of actually writing an original song was born. The first full song was written in high school which was followed by several more bad songs in college. After college and a few years of making his way in the real world, he drifted back to his love of playing the guitar and songwriting.

Dave is a native to the Tennessee valley. Born in Huntsville, AL and raised in Fayetteville, TN. He currently resides in Madison, Alabama with his wife of 20+ years and makes his living in the world as an engineer. When hes not behind a guitar, you can usually find him on top of a bike seat or out on a run training for another Ironman triathlon.
