with his music. As a child, young David lived with his family in a

inspired by his brother's rock and jazz records to pick up the
saxophone and start writing his own songs. After earning his
stripes in some of the coolest bands in London, David splashed onto
the solo scene. David knew that to be a star, he had to combine
great songs with great performace, and so from this point on he

expressing his art on the stage. His songwriting talent and musical
