Chesterwhite was an idea which became a revolving door of musicians. It started out as a progressive rock band and eventually found it's roots in songs. We toured all over the place and I have some fucked up and funny stories which I will not bore you with now. My name is Donny and I make music. I am a singer and a songwriter and my day job is not much different. The name Chesterwhite comes from my old high school ceramics teacher Mr. Darigo, who would smoke 2 packs of unfiltered Camels and insult you all day. A Chester White is a name he called me a as a backhanded compliment and I found it reminiscent of early influences like Jethro Tull and Pink Floyd. The current album, "Chesterwhite and His Orchestra" is a rock record. It features Seth Moutal on drums, Freddy Pastore on Bass, Dave Dunn on guitar, and myself on all vocals, guitars, and piano. This line-up has played such venues as The Van's Warped Tour '05, The Hammerstein Ballroom, and a bunch of crappy dives across parts of this country......................Well,it's official...I'm singing the theme song to a new Fox show called "Fashion House".
