Dave Rich Band

DRB are a 5 piece band, fronted by Dave Rich (piano/guitar) - a musician who's worked all his life as a singer/songwriter. DRB are totally independent, Dave's music is currently distributed worldwide by Proper Music and he is a member of the PRS and MCPS. The album Overload was received with glowing reviews, although it wasn't Dave's first CD. Dave has produced 5 solo albums which he released regionally from his website. Over the years the band has formed to backup his exceptionally good song writing. Always striving to make interesting, yet accessible music DRB pride themselves on being a proper band, writing excellent tunes and playing memorable, exciting gigs. Although difficult to classify, his music sits comfortably alongside the likes of Paul Weller, Coldplay, U2, The Sterophonics, Peter Gabriel, Sting, Jamie Cullum, and Damien Rice. Even the entrenched music industry aficionados have had a really hard time labelling that which can fill the void between Rock, Pop, Folk, Country and Jazz. Dave notes Bruce Hornsby, Sting and Marc Cohn as major influences, and when Dave lets fly on the piano you can definitely hear the Hornsby touch there. The band are dotted all over Devon, but recent gigs have taken them to Leeds, Manchester, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Birmingham, and Cardiff. Read more on Last.fm.
