David Price

About Me


I'm a Welsh singer, songwriter and guitarist living in North London. I used to play in the Italian reggae band Primitive Steps. I played a few gigs for Reel People and I've since had bits and pieces released on labels such as Papa Records, Tru Thoughts and the magnificent Bermuda Triangle Records.

I enjoy the recording aspect of things. I like gigs. I dabble in classical guitar. My bass playing is a bit shoddy, but I'm willing to give it a go. I'm very happy if you give me a cowbell to whack. I got a chromatic harmonica for Christmas, and I'm still trying to figure out how it works.

At the moment, I'm working with the soul project Spengler and the Bermuda Triangle label, as well as playing and singing in London's only Peruvian chicha band, Los Chinches. I'm also available to perform solo, or with the David Price trio.
