From the age of 5, Dave played classical guitar and studied with the many fine musicians that frequented his dad’s music store. At age 12 he attended the Monterey Pop Festival and was drawn to the bass playing of Noel Redding from Jimi Hendrix’s band. Shortly thereafter Dave picked up a bass from his dad’s store and has been playing bass since that time.
