Musicians, tired of writing your own bio? Hire me as your word slinger. I've written a ton of bios, press releases and web content. My work has been published in Acoustic Guitar, Curve, Indie-Music.com, SingOut! and many more.

YAY RENEE BODIE (FA BOARD MEMBER and producer of:)!!! THE 1st LA ACOUSTIC MUSIC FESTIVAL was a HUGE SUCCESS, and I am so glad I was there to see it happen! THANK YOU for believing in the music, believing in the audience, and believing in the magic of the sung poem. Thank you for holding onto my song "Spirit OF Love" from 1974, and bringing it back to me in 2000. What an honor to have you use it as the anthem of LAAMF. Blessings and many years of continued love and support!!

Hey There! ...

Please let me know if you (or someone that you know) would like for me to sing some demos.... I recently started getting serious about singing as a session vocalist and I have been encouraged to pursue this as a path to "fill the gaps" while I am working on my next project.

So I figured I would send out the word to everyone I know, l letting you know that I am ready, willing and able to do demo vocal work for Rock, Country, Pop, etc.... I have my own home studio as well so I can easily take on any project.

I hope to see you soon!

Much Love and God Bless,
Dave

“A rare sighting of the excellent Little Scratch, who produce a wonderful, slightly hazy pastoral sound… Psychedelic whimsy with distinctly melancholic overtones”.
