Dave Morrison
Dave
Morrison has long been known as one of Southern California's most engaging
performing songwriters. He has been playing out sporadically for twenty
years. In the early nineties, Dave released his first recording, A
Flash of Green, but did little to promote it. He was busy with raising
small children and working blue-collar day jobs.
Frustrated with LA's bloated, fame-obsessed music scene, Dave abandoned
music for a time, writing a soon-to-be-published collection of short
stories, two novels and a widely read on-line column. He even tried
his hand at stand-up comedy. All these detours eventually led back
to his first and truest love — the good song sung truthfully.
Dave recently signed to Trough Records and personally oversaw the recording
of his new CD, A Little Farther Down the Line. After selecting fourteen
songs from the bunch, and lining up some of California's best players,
the fun began in earnest. The result is an album that spans the breadth
of Dave's artistic sensibilities and has surfaced on radio stations
all over the country.
