Dave started playing drums at the age of seven. After several years with the same teacher, he started to play in local cover garage bands. When sniffing gas fumes and playing Smoke on the Water finally became too much for him, Dave began hooking up with people to actually create music. So many great drummers and musicians influence Dave, it would take up too much space. So come see a Temple 8 show, buy him a beer, and he’ll be happy to tell you some of them. Dave uses Yamaha and DW drums, Sabian cymbals, Evans heads, and Vic Firth sticks.

Temple 8 is the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist, Kurt Tischer. It was in its fledgling, pre-production stages for some time before becoming fully born when Kurt and drummer/percussionist, David Clark met as unsuspecting members of an otherwise low-key demo recording project booked by another band at Kurt's home studio.
By October 2001, the first Temple 8 recordings were streaming from music web sites all over the Internet and garnering attention from fans in America and even moreso in Europe and Asia.
Temple 8 hits a home run with their apt titled debut CD "Enter The Temple", using poetic and politically charged lyrics to illustrate the stark state of world affairs, driving toward spiritual awakening, all laid out and wrapped around a superb, epic musical platform.
"Enter The Temple" was released in April 2003 and has achieved numerous accolades on music web sites and e-zines the world over. Look for the next CD from Temple 8 to be released in mid 2008.

I look to you when I need to find away to let my inner feelings show, when words are rushing quietly through my mind like a beautiful river as it flows. Holding you in my arms I move my fingers up and down your neck, I plug you in just to turn you on while deciding on the perfect effect. Finding within us the message to awaken their awaiting senses, while making them believe they're walking through lush green meadows, maybe being surrounded by little white fences. As I touch and move your strings you respond with the magic of your caressing sound, inspiration is lending itself from every direction, only needing me to be aware of what we together may have found. Speak to me easy my six string image of beauty, let me hear yet another dream that will share someone else's weight that they alone are still trying to carry.... ~Nick Nichols~ Have a great day my talented friends, enjoy the poem I wrote.... Many miles of smiles to you, ~Nick~
