Biography

Born in Detroit Rock City; David left the Midwest behind for an East Coast punk rock odyssey. He built his foundation in the 90s with his bands Lifetime, Ink & Dagger and Kid Dynamite. The Aughts brought more thunder with Good Riddance on the West Coast, while Paint it Black and None More Black helped further develop his sound back East. Higher Giant and Crossed Keys have allowed him to redefine his melodic punk style by exploring and expanding power and speed.
