Dave Burton-Bass and Vocals Dave began his music training in formal and classical music. He soon grew restless and picked up the guitar. It was a few years before his passion for the bass was discovered and has been in his hands ever since. Dave is originally from Evansville, Indiana and moved to St. Louis 4 years ago.
 
His previous bands were Dogstar (3 years), Crystal Sounds (15 years) Blues Tones (1 year) as well as toured through Nashville and the deep south with Indie acts such as Bobby Cage and Sue Kennedy. After moving to St. Louis, Dave bumped around in a couple of bar bands but always seemed drawn back to the blues. He has opened for name acts such as Crystal Gale, Barb Mandrel, Rickie Scaggs, Ronnie Montrose, Emerson Drive, Gary Nichols and Kentucky Headhunters.
 
Dave has many influences including: the Stones, Clapton, Led Zeppelin, Delbert McLinton, Humble Pie, Joe Cocker, Pink Floyd, The Who, Hank Williams Sr. and Norah Jones.
 
His favorite memories are too private to share here.
 
Dave's equipment list includes, Ampeg SVT 3, 8-10e and PR 4-10 HLF. He also uses a vintage Acoustic 370 bass head as well as various other custom-made cabinets. His main weapon of mass destruction is a G&L 1500 bass with a Fender Precision lyte bass for backup.
