Sounds Like
I was told "Amos Lee." Although I have yet to hear him (to be completely honest here.) A Male Indigo Girls with a dash of Morrissey. Also, like Robert Lamm from the group "Chicago." (Vocally. His voice is VERY thick. That's what I hear in mine. yeeeah.)
BIO UPDATED – MAY 10, 2008 – Hello, everyone! More news to update (which is ALWAYS a good thing, no?) I’m extremely grateful that my life is where it is at right now. I’m LOVING my life! I KNOW that the hardships and the tough times that I’ve been through has led me to this point. Enough about that.
Currently involved with “SongPoems Wanted: The Musical.” A very new musical in its infancy. Guys – I’m having a BLAST with this production. Since it is still being “workshop”ped, there is only ONE NIGHT that we are performing this show: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 at The Theatre Building, 1225 W. Belmont, Chicago, IL. 60613. If you want tickets, either hit me up on this page or e-mail me at freetickets@davidkav.com. Oh, yeah, duh, tickets for this one night show are FREE!
Other news, the mixing of the second album is DONE! Woo-hoo! I am getting the album mastered this week. Looking to release the album on CD in September. May release the mp3s earlier via iTunes, etc. So, stay tuned.
Other than that, gigging around town and having a blast. Still highly looking forward to WoofStock in Noblesville, IN in June. More info on that here: hamiltonhumane.com
