Biography

---

Originally from Fort Worth, Texas, Dave has been playing guitar since the age of 12.  He studied piano and guitar privately, has played professionally since 1978, and hopes to, one day, 'get it right'.

Dave has played with various rock, r&b, jazz and blues bands, and is working with "Revival", started in 2004.  Revival plays a high-end variety of unique blues, jazz and funk styled music, ranging from Allman Brothers instrumentals to Little Feat, to Steely Dan to Average White Band.  Revival features Dave alongside talented and tasteful guitarist, Skeeter Harrison, using a musical approach you don't get to hear often enough these days in two-guitar bands: two-guitar harmonies.

Dave has also works/worked with Andrea Dawson, Sam Meyers, The Silvertones, soul legends Lou Hampton & Bobby Patterson, The Mike Johnson Band, Superstar Harold Walker, Keri Lepai, Joe Johnas, Tommy Hill, The Fins and other notorious North Texas musical legends.

Dave's influences include, but are by no means limited to: Duane Allman, Dickie Betts, Jeff Beck, Robben Ford, Allan Holdsworth, The Three Stooges and Icky Twerp & Slam Bang Theatre.  

Dave lives near White Rock Lake in East Dallas with his wife, ten year old son, useless cat, family dogs and an attack frog.
