  • Bio

    "Dave Gleason is carrying on the Telecaster, Twang , California Country Music tradition as good as anybody and I am glad that he is " - PETE ANDERSON. "Dave's music and his style are steeped in country music tradition and respect for those who paved the road. Dave Gleason is proof that California country music is still alive and well!" - BRIAN HOFELDT/THE DERAILERS. Since his 2007 relocation from San Francisco to Southern California, Dave Gleason has assumed nearly-instantaneous Most Valuable Player status on the Los Angeles country music scene. With three strong albums already to his credit, Dave has proven himself in every category, as a strong singer, a solid, tradition-savvy songwriter, and a guitarist of nearly unsurpassable gifts. Add to this his winning and humble personality, his profound knowledge and understanding of music, and his immense capacity for work at any time of the day or night, and you have an invaluable, one-of-a-kind player. No bout a-doubt it: Dave Gleason's a champ. --Chris Morris, host, "Watusi Rodeo," Indie 103.1/Los Angeles .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ....Brought to you by: ..www.band-flyers.com...... .... ....>.... ..Click Here.. to download "Acoustic Sessions" on Amazon.com

    "Dave Gleason is one of my favorite guitarists. His playing is wise and lyrical but he's also a serious gunslinger. If Dave Gleason walks into the room, I set my guitar down." - DAVE ALVIN. "Dave Gleason can twang that guitar! Do not doubt it for a second. Besides being a great picker (who's getting better every time I see him, dammit!) he's a great singer, songwriter, and bandleader too." - DEKE DICKERSON. "Dave Gleason does Country just like I like it: plenty of twang, plenty of Tele, songs that get moving and keep moving. He's a smart guitarist, too, with deep chops and enough sense and sense of humor to know how to use 'em." - BILL KIRCHEN. "Equal parts Buck Owens and Gram Parsons, with a wicked Telecaster and a suit pocket full of infectious songs, Dave Gleason is almost single handedly keeping the music and traditions of California Honky-Tonk alive and well and in good hands." - MARK STUART/Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash. "Dave Gleason is a fine guitarist whose take on country music is a labor of love. That's what it takes to be good." - TONY GILKYSON. "Dave Gleason is one of my very Favorite Songwriters & Guitar players!, He's Real Talented, and I'm a BiG Fan of his work... Studio & Bandstand!" - DAVE GONZALEZ (the other DG!)
