For five consecutive years he was the Susan Lucci of the South Florida Folk Festival, earning a place as a finalist before winning Best Overall in 2002.

  • bloody brilliant play...wow!

  • The first time I heard and met Dave was May 2004 and I thought then that he was a brilliant guitarist. I have heard him play many times since then and he just gets better and more inventive with these solos. I have travelled to USA, Netherlands and Dublin to hear him (and Al) play. Worth every penny/ euro/dollar.
