Coming from an extremely musical family, David’s passion for music started at a very young age. He began learning the drums at the age of 5 and shortly after went on to learn the double bass. It wasn’t long before his primary school music teacher noticed David’s natural music ability.
Being pushed by his mother, David received a scholarship to study at the London Guildhall School Of Music where he went on to further his musical interest.
The saxophone was the final instrument David was very keen to learn, and he’s never looked back since! “It was like no other instrument I’d ever played before and I quickly fell in love with its tone and personality!”
Over the years, David has managed to developed his own unique & funky sound. Some of his musical influences include: Eric Darius, Dave Koz, Richard Elliot and Gerald Albright, and to which all have certainly helped David develop into a fantastic player and performer!
