David entered the music business quite by
accident while working as a bus driver in Leeds during the mid
seventies. While driving his bus, a couple of young men got on
and were discussing the need of a singer for there new rock n
roll band. Someone suggested Dave, and although his only singing
experience was in the bath, he went along for an audition and
got the job.
He played in several groups until he decided to move to
Withernsea where he went solo before semi retiring,
only performing on the odd occasion. He has always liked the
sound of the pipes and after seeing the Kingstown Scottish Pipe
Band he was very impressed.
Sometime later the band approached Dave to ask him if he would
take on the roll of compare / singer and he accepted. His
enthusiastic approach and singing experience has added to the
unique sound of the band.
