David Garfield's mission statement is I make music. And make music he does, as a world-renowned keyboard artist, producer, and composer. Be it jazz, rock, funk, or world beat he is the creative force behind the production of many internationally acclaimed recordings.
David started his career with jazz greats such as Willie Bobo, Freddie Hubbard, and Tom Scott in the 70's. After being on the L.A. scene for several years, he moved into the vast studio world during its heyday and earned a reputation for fine craftsmanship and versatility. This work eventually led to composing opportunities for television, film, and commercials (NBC / Disney / Nippon Television / RTL Germany).
During the 80's, Garfield arranged and produced many top Japanese artists and went on to produce his own projects for release in Japan. For the past 20 years, he has enjoyed continued popularity and success in that part of the world.
Forming Creatchy Productions, he worked with the top musicians, engineers, and studios in Los Angeles to create his own unique and contemporary musical sound. This endeavor eventually led to the birth of Creatchy Records and the release of several classic CD's including Los Lobotomys, a collaboration with some members of the group Toto.
His first international release on Creatchy Records, Tribute to Jeff, featured 78 musicians and artists including Don Henley, Eddie Van Halen, Michael McDonald, and Richard Marx, a virtual who's who in the music industry. Widely recognized around the globe, this heartfelt project reached the Top 10 Charts in Japan (Pop) and the U.S. (NAC). David quickly followed up Tribute to Jeff with I Am The Cat . . . Man, which was also enthusiastically received worldwide.
In addition to these solo endeavors, David has led the popular jazz fusion band Karizma for 30 years. This band has spawned some of the great musical talents of our time such as drummers Vinnie Colaiuta and Carlos Vega and guitarist Michael Landau. Karizma has released six CD's to date on Creatchy Records including the best-selling Document.
Garfield continues to have ongoing music relationships with George Benson (he is frequently Bensons Musical Director), Boz Scaggs, and Natalie Cole. Over the years, he has recorded with Cher, Spinal Tap, The Rippingtons, Ratt, Larry Carlton, and Smokey Robinson and has performed live with Michael Bolton, The Blue Brothers, Brenda Russell, and Rick Braun to name a few.
Giving Back is David Garfield's most recent Creatchy Records release, which once again features world-class musicians and artists. Recorded in both Los Angeles and New York, these 13 hot new tracks reflect a fresh direction for his West Coast Sound. Enjoying regular air-play in the U.S., Japan, Europe, and Australia, the response to Giving Back has been overwhelming and its popularity with listeners continues to grow David's international fan base.
Currently living in the Los Angeles area, David always strives to expand his talents while pursuing a wide range of activities whether it be performing with his own bands, as a guest player with other popular artists, or producing artists/groups such as Oleta Adams, Flora Purim, and Los Lobotomys. In addition, he writes and produces his own music and is looking forward to several new Creatchy Records projects to be released in the near future. His new book, "Pop and Rock Keyboards", is now available from Hal Leonard Publishing. Due to Garfield's diverse musical background and versatility, he has earned the respect of both his peers and critics alike and is one of the most in-demand musicians in the world today.

may your stuffing be tasty
may your turkey plump,
may your potatoes and gravy
have nary a lump.
may your yams be delicious
and your pies take the prize,
and may your Thanksgiving dinner
stay off your thighs!
:)
as we express our gratitude,
we must never forget
that the highest appreciation is not to utter words,
but to live by them.
Hello, New video on my space www.myspace.com/bouedi I hope we will meet you and collaborate with you. Bouédi Crazy Percu & Hribar Fanny -Communication manager-
CHAU VAN TRUONG wants to lose everything and be rejected by everyone. However in the endgame, I wish to rise from the ashes and reclaim my glory. But my mother, MUONG THI VAN, believed in me and supported me through my struggles. She will be rewarded by the first half million dollars to built her dream home in Vietnam from SECRETS KEPT movie. THIS IS NOT ENOUGH but the pieces of fiscal pie from an impossible dream turned reality will grow exponentially as the hype and word of mouth spreads for SECRETS KEPT movie then I will gift her the world on a plate. This woman who give me birth forbid me to work because she wanted me to focus on creating. Her unconditional love is as palpable as my beating heart. HOW COULD I SAY THANK YOU? This is the reason I write this declaration. I want the public to hold me accountable for what I vowed to do. It is also a reminder to myself that I am a man of my word. My lawyer has drawn up the contract stating that my mother gets the half million dollars before any money touches my hand. If this promise is empty, SECRETS KEPT movie or my writing career did not come to fruition. NOT MY FAULT!!!!
Thanks so much for the Add–and your friendship. We enjoyed your music very much. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. It's a pleasure having you among our friends!
We've just added two new blogs about Umano, plus four more new compositions, making ten on our space. We hope you and your friends visit us and enjoy our music, too.
We wake up every morning and play the music of the new MySpace friends who have arrived at our site during the night. It occurred to us that these friends (you are among them) are almost universally positive, whether they be novices or legends, and without regard to their station in life or the country they occupy.
Although it's not an original thought, it also occurred to us that we couldn’t hold a verbal conversation with most of these friends, but we have bridged that gap by expressing our art honestly with each other.
We all have been filling the world with our music and art, in the hope that our messages of love and human understanding will have an impact on the world at large.
What a gift and what an opportunity we have received from this technology!
Hey David, wanted to make the spaghettini gig, but couldn't. Was just watching the old Karizma vid with Carlos again, and just noticed that it was Dean Cortez on bass, we rehearsed for a while at my Pico loft, with Peter Riley on keys, Elpidio Cobian on congas and Tommy Trujillo on guitar, I got some reel to reel from those jams. Stay well old friend.
