Dave’s music is all about versatility. Being proficient on both piano and
guitar affords him the opportunity to find the texture that best suits each
song, and in doing so, serves the music and the listener.
"For me, it's all about making people happy - putting a smile on their faces as
they listen," Dave explains while on the way to a show in Chicago. "I just want
to make people smile."
Dave's music is all about heart, and as you listen to his debut album,
Photographs
to Nowhere, you can hear the hard work and pride that went into the
music from everyone involved. Even the artwork has a strong sense of
independence and style.
"The entire band was living in Philly at the time the record was made, and we
recorded up on Long Island. We commuted every day so it was a lot of traveling,
but in the end it was well worth it to work with Dug [the band's producer]."
Working tirelessly to promote himself and relentless touring have gone
hand-in-hand with Dave's continuous pursuit of songwriting. Ever-evolving and
colorful, Dave's songwriting is like his performances-spontaneous. His sound
has garnered an amazing response from fans and critics alike, and though one
can hear inspiration from many other artists in Dave's music, his voice and his
songs are all distinctly Dave Pittenger.
