Dave is a Bassist and has been playing and teaching in South East London for 20 years. In 1989, Musicians Academy in Wapping provided an enrichment and visionary setting for Dave and his Electric Bass. This gave Dave the desire, impetus and knowledge to begin to take his musical aspirations to the next level.
Dave successfully auditioned for the MUSICIANS INSTITUTE of Los Angeles in 1991. Then Studied with some World reknowned musicians and tutors such as Gary Willis, Scott Henderson and Jennifer Batten.
He received an accelerated degree in Music in 1992.
Since returning to the UK, Dave has played with several Bands most notably So What who toured extensively throughout the UK. Other bands included Norbere's Nodules, Blue Green and Redd .His current band Joocypeach have released two CD's Midnight Over Erith and Essential Endeavours with a third due to be released in late 2008.
Dave now teaches 4, 5 and 6 string Electric Bass with over 25 courses listed on his website (www.joocypeach.com). This tuition is carried out on a one to one and group basis. For those living further away Dave has devised a Distance Learning pack to teach over the 'net.
When Dave is not writing or working at his home studio he is teaching other local musicians the needs of the professional musician and the music industry.
