Biography

Dave Smith is a literate, articulate and emotional singer-songwriter, drawing on the Beatles' song-writing tradition, with twinges of lo-fi, country and emo. Current influences include Elliott Smith, Damien Rice and Radiohead.

For the past year Dave has been playing live around Sheffield as front man of local experimental indie-rockers The Walter Mandrake Demonstration, but is now branching out as a solo-artist.

Dave believes in a personal touch, communicating with people through songs and expressing feelings we have all known. His songs can be heartbreaking, beautiful and powerful, or straightforward indie sing-alongs.
