Having performed with various bands and professional musicians over the past decade, David has had the luxury of assembling a set list containing the best in popular pop, soul and rock guitar based anthems. Quality backing tracks provide the foundation for exceptional earthy and authentic vocals allied with unbelievably accurate and face melting solos! With the ultimate in state of the art Bose system sound, your party will come alive with the sounds of FREE, BON JOVI, KINGS OF LEON, KID ROCK, QUEEN, DAVID BOWIE, BRYAN ADAMS, GUNS N ROSES, JOE COCKER, ROD STEWART, JAMES BROWN, MICHAEL BUBLE, QUEEN, STEREOPHONICS, FOO FIGHTERS, BILLY IDOL, THE DARKNESS just to name a few !

I have booked Dave for a couple of events that I have hosted. He has an amazing voice and such a fabulous collection of songs that he can sing. He has always lived up our parties. I can’t recommend him enough. Very helpful will send out a full list of tracks and will take requests too! I would have no hesitation in booking him for any future event I was hosting

We booked Dave for my wife's 50th birthday party and one week later we're still buzzing. The locals from the pub have even asked when he's coming back! We chatted in the weeks beforehand to finalise the perfect playlist of rock classics and even to throw in a few special requests. My wife is a big fan of Adam Ant and Dave's version of Ant Music was right on the money. She was beaming. Couldn't have asked for a better party vibe. Thoroughly recommended. Cheers Dave! 7th Sept 2019
