Dave has ‘paid his dues’ with well over 3,000 performances, including the most respected blues and roots venues in the US, and top industry events.

But – first and foremost, just come listen for as long or as little as you desire.
In the spirit of connecting as a community, please be aware that a live online concert, streamed from an artist’s home, is a new adventure. It doesn’t matter if you are in LA or rural Vermont, COVID is rocking the internet grid and bandwidth issues may arise. We appreciate your patience, and hope you enjoy the concert!
