Dave returned to live in the UK again in 2010.

He has spent the past few years providing 'Voice Overs' for several radio Stations, producing them in the Broadcast Studio that he has set up at his home.


Having experienced the Seventies first hand, he has a genuine love for the popular music, of that particular decade.

This special love of the 70's is reflected in his show called

'That Seventies Sound'

which he produces and presents each and every week.

The show is heard on quality radio station's around the globe.

I bought my first single in 1969....."Sugar Sugar" by The Archies!!! I continued collecting rather a cross section of music until my best friend bought me "Burn" by Deep Purple for my eighteen birthday!! That was it....I became a life long "rocker" from then on!!
So my first love is ROCK, as is my second & third love.....although The Carpenters are my guilty pleasure!! Aside from Rock, I also love Sixties & Seventies music.....probably because I lived through them!!! lol
My love of Radio has been going for more years than I care to remember.....25+ years with Sunshine Radio on the Isle of Wight & a stint on internet radio with Vectis Radio for eight years, then I seemed to get offers to broadcast my shows all over the place!
A final thought....If someone had told me in 1969 not to collect the 6000 plus albums I collected over the decades because you'd be able to access them & more on a mobile phone that fits in the palm of your hand I'd have never have believed it!!! Mind, I did enjoy collecting them!!!

Presenter of Dance Party Weekly

Music, Radio and TV has always played a big part in my life and for the past 15 years I have had the privilege to work with some of the best directors, producers and writers in these industries. The past year has been very eventful as I’ve been filming a TV pilot for my first comedy script. This has been a very exciting and challenging time in my career. Working with a television production team and filming with a wonderful cast of household names. I have also been recording an original soundtrack for the show which has broadened my horizons both on and off camera, giving me the opportunity to get back in the recording studio to write new music which is my first love and how this journey started. A huge thank you to each and everyone of you who has been involved to make this happen. More news will follow over the next few months. This journey started at 16 years old when I signed my first management deal as a singer songwriter after entering a nation wide competition for ‘songwriter of the year’. This lead to me writing my first album, touring with Top 40 artists and running my own recording studios. My writing has taken me on an amazing journey from song writing for new artists to script writing for TV concepts.

I live just north of London, UK and am a lifelong musician having picked up the guitar at 12 years old. I love all genre of music and have played in many different types of bands from blues to dance to jazz to folk. Still playing in bands and love every minute of it. I have a special love of the Blues and sharing that love with you on the radio is a real privilege. My love of all music comes across in my show at the ‘Joker in the Pack’ feature where I play a tune that is not necessarily Blues but one I really love.
