David sings and plays the trumpet! He writes his own songs and has written hundreds of songs for other popular artists as well. His Dance/Pop song DEEPER LOVE rose to the top of the US Billboard Dance Music Charts. The song features David singing and playing his trumpet along with Dance & R&B singer CECE PENISTON. the newest version of the song is directed at Rhythmic Radio and will be released in September 2009. We will be previewing it here for the fans as well!
David Longoria is one of the worlds best trumpetists. He was classically trained before discovering jazz. It was here that he found he had a natural ability to improvise virtually any style of music and take it to new places everytime he performs. Diving head first into this artform opened the door to discovery in related types of music from Gospel to R&B, Flamenco and other Latin Styles. On the new album David sings and plays the trumpet as no other artist of our generation.
His new cd (BAILA!) scheduled for international release on Tuesday, September 29th, 2009 is a testimony to this. It covers a vast territory of music including Jazz, Club, Salsa & Flamenco both instrumental and vocal. Several guest artists contributed to the album including Guitarists Marc Antoine, Ottmar Liebert, Alejandro de la Valle, Carl Strand, singers CeCe Peniston, Jimena, Therese Neaime, Y-Nita Hall, Latisha, Percussion greats Poncho Sanchez, Eddie Rouse, Doug Van Booven, John Reed, Lucas Longoria, and Diva Dairognol.
Included in the upcoming collection are also a series of music videos filmed in Spain, Poland, Germany, France, Central America and the US. David's official website is www.davidlongoria.com

YOU were SO GOOD Monday! my teacher went with me and we both sat there with our mouths open when you played. your whole concert was great. I will catch it when you come to NY too.
My cousin Richard and his wife saw your concert and can't stop talking about it! I've seen you before so I knew they'd like it. But they were really excited. the music, dancers and you blew them away with your songs and your trumpet. oh and they said you were very funny too. way to go blue eyes!
DAVID! YOUR CONCERT WAS AMAAAAAAAAZING! we were stuck in traffic so I was so glad you started a few minutes late. You are so talented! the whole show was beautiful and your songs are crazy good. Is this going to be the new concert lineup? You had all the stars there so it was a lot more than I expected. every song got bigger that the last one!and your trumpet is unbelievable! all those dancers were beautiful too. I could watch that concert over and over.
