Here's little "On Line" information to help you book Dave and his band.

I want all clients to know what they are getting for their dollar which is why this "On Line" press kit is being assembled and is a work in progress, to be updated regularly.

First off, the band specializes in Rock 'n Roll music from the late 1950's to the early-mid 1960's with both original music, written by Dave, and authentic recreations of "Cover" tunes from that era. Rockabilly, Surf & Doo-Wop are the types of Rock 'n Roll the band generally plays. There are approximately 300 songs in the "Cover" tune repertoire which does include some "Classic" Rock from the 1970's, 1980's & 1990's however the 1950's is the band's main artistic "Bread & Butter"

The band is three (3) pieces comprised of Dave, Lead Vocal & Guitar, Paul Montgomery or Martyn Jones, Drums & Backing Vocals and John Alexander, Upright Bass & Backing Vocals. For more information on each individual member, please check out their :

Les Paul Band Bios

Clients have the option to book Dave with or without the band.

Clients can also book Dave as a Solo acoustic act. The entire band can also plays acoustic depending on the clients wants and needs. Remember, songs in the late 1950's had musician's playing through little 10 watt amps, it was almost acoustic anyway. To recreate a "Rocking" sound on acoustic guitars, bass & a single drum is a reality and an option for clients. It works just as well as a duo with just my Bass player, here's an example of just that playing my song

"Dancin' Shoes"
