David hails from Liverpool, a real scouser! After playing the drums on the arm of a chair as a kid, he went on to become the drummer in Kirkby R.A.F.A Club. Soon after David formed a group with two other Kirkby lads, this band was China Crisis, who during the eighties had top 10 and top 20 singles and a gold selling album (all co-written by David). As well as playing all the major venues in the UK they appeared on numerous T.V shows including Top of the Pops.

David later went on to be a highly respected session drummer and also a member of "The Freeze Frame", "Jo Jo and The Real People", "The Immortal" and "2 am" who toured with Chris Rea on his 1988-89 world tour.

Having known the lads for many years they asked him to stand in for a concert and he's still here! Recently David and Chris were musical coordinators on a new Beatle film called 'In His Life- The John Lennon Story' for NBC America. They both played parts in the film, Chris played 'Tony Sheridan' and David played the Beatles stand in drummer, 'Johnny Hutch'.

David is an accomplished writer/producer and Keyboard Programmer and plays bass guitar and guitar as well as drums/percussion. Together with Chris, Gary, and Paul he has recorded original material which that they look forward to releasing in the near future.
