Details:
Dave McGrath was born in Kingston Ontario Canada. He moved to Rochester N.Y. when he was two and began studying music in grammar school playing slide trombone, singing in school plays, the choir, and playing guitar. After playing in some local bands in high school, and college, he moved to Seattle Washington where he began performing both as a solo artist, as well as with several popular bands.
His first project in Seattle was a group called "Tribal Therapy" which became very popular throughout the Northwest, touring Washington, Oregon, and California. Some of the high profile shows included performing with the group "Heart", "Alice in Chains" and Michael Hedges. Following a five-year stint with "Tribal Therapy" Dave joined a band called "The Puddle Jumpers" He began performing, and recording with them on their debut CD "Out of the Shadows" which gained them praise from critics, and received significant airplay on college, and non-commercial radio stations throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe.
Dave co-founded an independent record label to promote the debut album, and co-produced the subsequent two following albums. His songwriting skills continued to grow, as well as his guitar playing, vocals, and stage presence as "The Puddle Jumpers" increasingly performed throughout the Northwest area.
In 2001 Dave moved back to Rochester NY, and began performing acoustically, as well as with a full band, while continuing to write, and record original material. In 2003 he completed construction of a state of the art 32 channel recording studio, and released his debut album in May 2005 to enthusiastic fans.
The debut Cd has 12 original songs written by McGrath which range in style from singer songwriter to bluesy/pop rock. The production is major label quality, and the performances by McGrath, and his musicians are impressive. Vocals, and lyrics highlight the themes behind these songs which confront difficult questions about where love goes away, as well as celebrate the beauty of the "Mississippi Mud", and the "One Chance" to fall in love. A great listen from start to finish from a do it yourself, and do it right type artist.
