  • Bio

    David moved to Memphis from Richmond, Virginia in the summer of 2001 to be in a better music town. His first album 'Sounds off' was released in Richmond in 2000 and co-produced by his longtime friends Jason Horst (Jason and the vacations) and Josh Scolaro (Aircraft). In Memphis David works as a tour guide at the legendary Sun Studio (Elvis, Johny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis) during the day while constantly writing and playing gigs at night. 'End of an Error' (2003) was a great step forward in terms of songwriting and has recently been licensed by Starbucks to play in some of their 6000 stores worldwide. In 2005 'Chorus verses the bridge' was released, and David also married and had a daughter in that same year. In Feb 2007 David went on a solo acoustic tour of the United Kingdom, his first tour outside of the midsouth. He played dates in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Oxford, Leicester and London along the way. His gig at the Cavern Club in Liverpool where the Beatles began their career marked a highlight in his young career. A month before the tour, his fourth album 'Obsessed' (2007) was released to the strongest reviews to date. 2007 also marked Davids' 4th year as a tour guide at Sun Studio, which has helped him out tremendously with meeting people from all over the world. As of March 2008, Brookings has sold just over 4,000 records on his own. Google David Brookings to read more on this promising young rock'n'roll singer/songwriter ..

    Have a LAUGH TODAY David!
     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT BARBIE AND KEN ...

    A man was driving home one evening and realized that it was his daughter's birthday and he hadn't bought her a present.

    He drove to the mall and ran to the toy store and he asked the store manager "How much is that new Barbie in the window?"

    The Manager replied, "Which one? We have 'BARBIE GOES TO THE GYM' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES TO THE BALL' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES SHOPPING' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES TO THE BEACH' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES TO THE NIGHTCLUB' for $19.95 ....and 'DIVORCED BARBIE' for $375.00".

    "Why is the Divorced Barbie $375.00, when all the others are $19.95"? -  Dad asked surprised.

    "Divorced Barbie comes with Ken's car, Ken's House, Ken's boat, Ken's dog, Ken's cat and Ken's furniture."

    A DAY WITHOUT LAUGHTER IS A DAY WASTED!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    RESPECT YOURSELF David!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT SELF - RESPECT ...

    "Don't rely on SOMEONE ELSE for your HAPPINESS and SELF WORTH. Only YOU can be responsible for that. If you can't LOVE and RESPECT YOURSELF - NO ONE ELSE will be able to make that happen.

    Accept WHO YOU ARE - COMPLETELY; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit ..."

    ~ Stacey Charter

    IF YOU WANT TO BE RESPECTED BY OTHERS, YOU

    MUST FIRST RESPECT YOURSELF!

    Here's to NEW BEGINNINGS David!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT NEW BEGINNINGS ...

    "EVERY DAY is a NEW BEGINNING.

    Treat it that way.

    Stay away from WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN,

     and LOOK AT WHAT CAN BE."

    ~ Marsha Petrie Sue from "The CEO of You"

    THE SECRET TO A RICH LIFE IS TO HAVE MORE

    BEGINNINGS THAN ENDINGS!

    Hello David!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT CHILDREN ...

    "Let us be the ones who say WE DO NOT ACCEPT that a CHILD DIES EVERY 3 SECONDS simply because he does not have the drugs you and I have.

    Let us be the ones to say WE ARE NOT SATISFIED that your PLACE OF BIRTH determines your RIGHT TO LIFE.

    Let us be OUTRAGED, let us be LOUD, let us be BOLD."

    ~ Brad Pitt, Actor

    CHILDREN ARE THE HANDS BY WHICH WE TAKE HOLD OF HEAVEN.  THE ONLY THING NECESSARY FOR THE TRIUMPH OF EVIL IS FOR GOOD PEOPLE TO DO NOTHING!

    Hello David!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ON THE POWER OF KINDNESS ...

    "You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this WORLD'S HAPPINESS.

    How?

    By giving A FEW WORDS OF SINCERE APPRECIATION to someone who is LONELY or DISCOURAGED.

    Perhaps you will forget tomorrow what KIND WORDS you say today, but the recipient may cherish them OVER A LIFETIME."

     ~ Dale Carnegie
