Wherever he has lived, David has been a popular musician and sought-after entertainer. He mixes popular, classical, Broadway, blues, jazz, comedy, and big-band styles with his own unique personality and audience rapport. As a solo pianist or with his trio, David can bring the energy and joy of live music to your next event.
Dave and His 88 Friends has been a popular vehicle for those who enjoy David’s unique creativity and wide-ranging talent. A one-man show, this high-energy 90 minute cabaret-style performance is different every time, full of surprises, and a great evening of inspiration and entertainment. (And occasionally other friends of his tag along!)
