About Me

I'm in one spectacular Irish Pub band called Three Pints Shy. Our lovely fans (oh yes! You too guys!) make it bar none the most fun thing I have done in my life. Check out our site @ www.threepintsshy.com (or see us on youtube) and we'll all be Three Pints Shy.I sing Tenor, play penny whistle and write songs.I love to photograph pretty/interesting people/places. I've recently started photography as a career and have found in it yet another passion in my life. Of course, check it out @ www.davidawa.comI did work as Executive Director of the Rising Sun Performance Company in New York for 5 years but resigned May, 2006 to devote more time to my band and photography. I do still enjoy helping actors, writers and directors when I can, so feel free to ask me any questions.Uh . . . I still keep up my juggling and handstands (down stairs and escalators is my favorite).I can't draw or paint.

My Interests

Performing, Composing, Photographing and more than all, Thinking, Thinking, Thinking.

Depressing songs, songs that tell a story, songs that are over 5 minutes long.

Movies:
