   About David Bavas

David Bavas is a singer-songwriter originally from the foothills of the Appalachians, now living in Seattle, Washington. With his self-titled debut album in 2005, David Bavas and his band The Down Comforter were a showcasing act at SXSW and their music was featured on NPR's All Songs Considered Open Mic. His sophomore release "Songs of Love, Death, and Trains" is slated for a street date of October 2, 2007. The new album showcases Bavas's dark voice and his songwriting that comes out of a small-town Americana upbringing. "Songs of Love, Death, and Trains" was recorded and mixed by Kevin Suggs, whose past credits include the Shins, Cat Power, and The Minus Five.

 

Americana UK

“ Dark, disturbing but unmissable” 8 out of 10

(Michael Mee)

 

Boise Weekly

“ All the songs on the CD have a timeless quality. They could just as easily have been sung by Woody Guthrie, Jimmy Rogers, Hank Williams Sr. or Johnny Cash.”

(CURT NICHOLS)

 

Leicester Bangs

“ Bavas' combination of city and country roots comes together on his second album ‘Songs Of Love, Death, And Trains’. It’s Americana, but with a dark urban heart.”

(Rob F.)

 

Chartattack

“ Country-folk singer-songwriter David Bavas kicks off his second release on a promising note. "All The Trains" showcases keening pedal steel work and Bavas's quiet, low melodic tones that are sometimes reminiscent of Aaron Riches (Royal City)..”

(Shannon Whibbs)

 

Hybridmagazine.com

“Very down, indie alt-country… dark vocals and beautiful guitars on precise and hearty songs. Excellent.” (Sterling)

 

Salt Lake City Weekly

“Bavas comes off as an everyman; if every man could win us over with a strange timbre that makes the hard-of-hearing struggle to pick up.” (Jamie Gadette)

 

Twangville

“His style is unique, although his Appalachian upbringing definitely influences his music. However, his sound owes as much to Indie Rock as it does Roots Music.” (Chip “crackersoul” Frazier)

 

Drowned In Sound

“…Bavas ably demonstrates that he’s got the whole country thang nailed down…”

(Ben Patashnik)
