Bio

David Glaser: Great Songs, Great Singing, Great Playing, Great Show!

David Glaser is a relative newcomer, but he is not a neophyte. After seeing him perform at NERFA, FAI, and Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, some folks have asked, “Where has he been hiding, and why haven’t I heard of him before?” After nearly 3 decades under the radar, playing in bar bands and touring as a hired gun, award-winning songwriter and consummate guitarist David Glaser burst onto the Acoustic/Folk scene in 2008 with “Cars and Lovers”, a genre-bending CD that shows his range as a performing songwriter. Greeted with praise and rewarded with nationwide airplay, C&L charted on Folk Radio with the popular titles “Picture in My Car” and “House in Baltimore”. A new CD, “Caffeine and Nicotine” is slated for release in 2010. David's songs are lush, evocative, and full of imagery - like an album of snapshots from his rich journey. An evening with David is a rollercoaster ride of style, emotion and genre; you can expect popular S/SW to traditional and many shades in between. David's fluent guitar and mandolin skills have made him a sought after side man, studio musician, and guitar teacher. He performs regularly with Lowen & Navarro, Dan Navarro, Stephanie Corby, Amy Speace, and Bob Sima, among others. For more information about David, visit www.davidglaser.com
