Living and playing blues music in Colorado Springs, CO,
with forays down to Dallas, TX to work music with Hash Brown, and out to Los Angeles with L.A. Jones.

Magic Dave (that's me) is an innovative (oh boy, here's where I talk about myself ...hey if you can't get Dick Shurman...) blues harmonica stylist, using his instrument to evoke the the saxophone of King Curtis, the guitar of B.B. King, the organ of Jimmy McGriff, complete with Hammond chorus and Leslie speaker sounds generated entirely with his hands and mouth.

A prolific songwriter ("Jelly On The Belly," "I've Had Enough Of You," "Right Wrong Man" "Your Tears Don't Work No More"), Magic Dave's jazz and blues compositions, improvisational stylings, vocal rants, and innovations in playing technique have garnered acclaim from such harp masters as Jerry Portnoy and Magic Dick. He has played extensively with blues greats L.A. Jones and the Blues Messengers, and Hash Brown. When not touring or recording he fronts his own band, Magic Dave and The New Mules.

Magic Dave's blues harmonica creations can be heard on the CDs, Birthday Suit and Jumpin' At Shadows, by L.A. Jones (Barking Blues Records).
