You might remember him as “Dave Howard”. David released a strong string of albums from the 1990s until the twenty-teens, when other matters required his attention. He is now jumping back on the music train, with a retrospective album, fresh performances, and, some new material. David was a mainstay of the vibrant 1990s local coffeehouse scene, and later fronted the Blackout Blues Band and The Shamey Jays. A three-time nominee for the San Diego Music Awards, he has written and performed with A.J.
