FIVE STARS!!!!

David was very accommodating for our small house party. He reached out ahead of time to discuss the type of music, and adjusted it based on requests. He has a wonderful voice and was a perfect fit! I would definitely have him again if the opportunity arises!

Very flexible and willing to think outside the box

David did a great job of working with me on a Playlist for the Cinci St. Patrick's day parade, he was willing to learn new songs, and we worked together on a great Playlist. He was very engaged in the process, not just a performer but he showed a great passion for creating the right music for the event, really enjoyed working with him and hope to do more in the future.

Went over and beyond

David is an absolute gem in the world of audio tech. His expertise and professionalism shine through in every aspect of his work. From the moment he stepped into my home to assist with my podcast, he exuded a calm and confident demeanor that immediately put me at ease. Not only did he resolve the technical issues I was facing with my equipment, but he also took the time to patiently train me on various aspects of podcast production, offering invaluable tips and insights along the way.

What truly sets David apart is his passion for his craft and his genuine desire to help others succeed. He didn't just fix my problems; he empowered me with the knowledge and skills to navigate future challenges with ease. His attention to detail and commitment to excellence are evident in the results he delivers.

Thanks to David's expertise and guidance, my podcast has never sounded better. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone in need of audio assistance. David is not just a tech wizard; he's a true mentor and friend in the world of podcasting.

What to expect

I can bring a small PA, and play and sing with acoustic guitar, mostly alternative rock, classic rock etc. Or I can play electric guitar with backing tracks. I can also play with your band or a band, bass guitar, acoustic or electric. I can read guitar tabs or chord charts, no sheet music. I have worked as a sound engineer and can assist with that or other gigs, just ask.

About

Indie Music Digest’s nominee for Album of the Year, is a “musical personality. . . rich with Alternative Rock with a side of guitar driven-Pop Rock.” The band was founded in 2010 by David Sizemore, the multi-faceted singer, guitarist, and keyboardist of the group. Compared to greats such as Nirvana, the White Stripes, and Daughtry; Farehaven is known for its “highly entertaining”, “passionate” and “uplifting” music, complete with a “polished, crystal clean sound quality.” In spite of their many Modern and Classic Rock influences, they possess an “enlightening” and “powerful” sound that is distinctly their own. As one reviewer stated, “I’ve never had a band suck me in quite like this one did- refusing to let go and calling me back after it was complete.” Farehaven has received publicity across various mass media outlets, including airplay on over 40 radio stations throughout the country, and features in Music Connection and Hmmag magazines. The band received a nomination for “Best New Band” in the New Music Awards college category. Farehaven signed a licensing deal with Playitloud music in February 2012 and its album, Upside Down, is currently distributed through CDbaby. Farehaven connects to its fans through its powerful lyrics in a way few other bands of this generation do. In “Going Nowhere,” Sizemore belts out, “And if we’re not mistaken/cannot take a chance to waste our time/it’s now or never/so choose your fantasy.” Listeners will become hooked on the fantasy created by Farehaven’s sound.

Played guitar at Paramounts Kings Island School of Rock, for Christian artist Brandy Alison, Blessid Union of Souls, opened for Seven Mary Three, Adema, Days of the New.

Additional booking notes

I usually need standard outlets. But, I can also run my PA battery powered, or can run power from my car if necessary. Whatever you provide can be used as well.
