Born and raised in Dublin Ireland, David shares his time between Europe and USA. Although he draws comparisons to his country mate Damien Rice, and other artists such as Jeff Buckley and Nick Drake, David has sound that is unquestionably his own.

His songs tell in heartbreaking bittersweet precision and truth, stories of resignation, deceit and bitter sadness; but they can also purge the listener of these same demons.

David has shared the bill with the Who, Damien Rice, Ron Sexsmith, Jeff Buckley, Gavin Degraw and Ray Charles to name but a few. All are enthusiastic endorsers of his unique brand of songwriting.

His live performance is a profound experience that never fails to deliver whether it's solo, or with any of his  ensembles, which can include on occasion a string quartet.

Fresh from the Studio, "Running with Knives" is his best material to date. Take the time to listen to it.
