Dave was born, and still lives, in Lincolnshire, on the East Coast of England.
His interest in music really began with The Beatles, but he has also been greatly influenced over the years by David Gates, Elton John, Yes and The Eagles. 

 

He played in several local bands in the early seventies, but soon developed a preference for writing. 

Now, with his own MAIN ROAD STUDIO, he is able to write and produce his songs, and collaborate with artists around the world.

Dave's lyrics have been described as both poignant and Inspirational, ranging from the upbeat "Breakaway", a message to make your own way in life: "you don't wanna be here old and grey!", to the poignant "Too Many Hearts", his despair at tragic world events: "too many hearts have been broken!"
