Dave was born in Santa Ana, California. He was influenced by his father’s guitar playing and his mother’s singing. Music was always happening with all five of his sisters as well. Dave started playing bass guitar at the age of 16. He did this for a Wednesday night Youth Service at his church. Dave now has over 35 years of playing and singing experience that he puts to great use as part of Buck Trent’s All Star Cast. Dave has played and recorded with Doyle Dykes, Box Car Willie, Barbara Fairchild, the Platters, Buck Trent, and more. He continues to do session work, and is honored to be a part of the Buck Trent Show (Oh…Yeah!).
