Next week, there are three chances to see Dave perform live around the Metro Detroit area.  

First, on Sunday night at 7pm, Dave helps lead a praise band at Hope Lutheran Church in Farmington Hills, performing Christian Rock hits by Chris Tomlin and Hillsong United, and Meredith Andrews (among others) with a band of great professional musicians.  

Next, Monday, Dave does a 180 and sings with The Rhythm Kings, a 9-piece, horn-driven show band at the Motor City Casino's Chromatics Lounge from 7-11pm. 

Finally, Dave will play a solo acoustic show at Wyandotte Business Association's Third Friday celebration "Beer Fest" from 5 to 9pm.  Tickets for the beer fest are $20 each, and will be sold at the clock tower at the corner of Biddle and Maple.  

Come check out any or all of these gigs, and say hi when you do!

Dave's First All-Original Solo Acoustic Show

6/24/2014

0 Comments

 
On Friday, June 20, I performed my first show of 100% original material at Wyandotte's "Art on the Avenue."  These are songs I've written over the last few years and include children's songs, songs written for church, acoustic ballads and sing-along anthems.  The crowd was small due to the rain, but certainly appreciative.  Enjoy!

This Friday, June 20, I'll be performing at Art On The Avenue in Downtown Wyandotte.  The Wyandotte Business Association is holding this event with live music, face painting, food, and open air painting for everyone.  I'll be performing on the main stage at Elm and Biddle from 5-6pm, with a set of all-original songs.  Afterwards, I'll set up on a street corner and busk 'til dusk!  

It would be amazing to have some fans come see the main stage show where I'll perform songs including "20 Beautiful Children," "Arise and Awake," and "So Far Away," as well as songs from my debut EP "Resonance" and "The Sound of Me Ignoring You."  I hope to see you this Friday for music, fun, art and shopping on the Avenue!

Swing Shift Plays Blues, Jazz, and Rock

Oye Como Va

Gold On The Ceiling

Night Train

On Thursday, June 13, Swing Shift played at the Auburn Hills Community Recreation Center.  We played an eclectic mix of new and old, jazz, blues, and rock - all tunes with a swingin' beat.  For this show, Phil Mooney rocked the guitar as only he can, Mike "Moose" Shriver kept the low end up on bass, and Jim Dignan smacked his Slingerlands.  I sang lead on most songs, and for this gig I switched off between guitar and keyboards, using my new Novation Launchkey 61 controlling Mainstage on my MacBook Pro for most of the show.  I loved the new gear!  Here are some songs from that gig for your listening enjoyment.
