   About David Van Buskirk
David Van Buskirk is a 27 year old singer/songwriter from Canton, OH. He began writing songs 9 years ago, recorded his first CD in 2002 and recently moved to Nashville, TN where he has finished his latest independent release, 'Rhode Island.' 'Rhode Island' was produced by Andrew Osenga of Caedmon's Call and features Charlie Lowell of Jars of Clay on piano and B3. It's available for download now at www.speakerheart.com/dvb or you can order it the good old fashioned way by clicking over there on the left and it will come to you via the U.S. Postal Service.
David recently completed a cross country bike trip benefiting Blood:Water Mission's 1000 Wells Project. The Ride:Well Tour is a group of 18 riders and friends of Africa that partnered with churches and other folks across the country to raise money and awareness for the project.

Hey man! Hope the ride goes well for ya!

I finally listened to your Rhode Island album (I have been frantically listening my way though a pile of albums that need listening to).

I didn't necessarily much care for the opening/title track but as a whole I did like the record. Good Job! My favorite track has to be "Can't Sleep"

Hope you sell a ton and keep writing the good tunes!

i totally got you a gig in china. of course, you have to get here. and you have to stay in a small box. on the street. with only one sock on. and no shoes. :) when can i expect you?? you'll make a killing selling mini stickers. it will pay for your flight here and back. :) :)

so i'm kidding. but i'm sure after you read the stickers would pay for your flight here AND back, you caught on.
:) what are you doing in nashville these days?? still at the bucks?

Hey Dave. I think I'm going to be passing through Nashville on April 5th with a couple freinds. We're thinking about staying one night there. Let me know if you'll be in town.

Ha! I forgot about your involvement in the whole hang glider obsession! That was right around the time I banged myself up pretty good running off the side of a hill with a bedsheet tied to a couple of brooms! I'm way cooler now than I was then...
I'm moving to Ithaca for vet school in the fall. Trying to travel the world while I'm young...the damn currency situation isn't making it easy:). How's Nashville treating you?
