Description
Florida-based indie folk singer David Rosenfield will tour the US this winter, playing shows from Florida to California to promote his 2011 release, Son of Ojito. He will be performing twice in the Bay Area; the first show will be at Coffee Adventures in San Francisco, on Friday, January 20, at 11 AM. The second show will be at at Streetlight Records in San Jose, on Saturday, January 21, at 4 PM, along with Scott Alexander.At the ripe old age of 34, David Rosenfield is a fatalist and optimist. He has waltzed through a life of dusty basements and mountain tops, looking for that golden child called happiness. Or is it California? Either way. His songs are filled with unconventional imagery over a backdrop of Mountain Goats-esque acoustic guitar, with the ghost of the Violent Femmes lurking somewhere over his shoulder or around the corner. There's a little country music in there somewhere, vying with the punk rock and the folk and the blues. To see him perform live is to witness some kind of an impassioned backwoods poet, as he yells, or whispers, or croons. One thing is for certain: playing music for you makes him happy.
David recently finished a successful summer tour of the eastern US in support of Son of Ojito, playing venues in Georgia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Ohio, New York and Massachusetts, as well as making a number of live appearances on college radio stations in New York, Ohio and West Virginia.
What people are saying about David:
"David Rosenfield is the quintessential gentleman songster of our times; entertaining in a truly organic and knowingly experienced way." - Simaen Skolfield, Grammy Award winning recording engineer
"...the way in which he writes and sings his story-like lyrics is astonishing – he is a true 21st century story teller through music." - Vandala Ezine, March 2011
"Florida-based folkie David Rosenfield was born in Seattle and raised in California. Along the way, he picked up punk attitude from both locales, merging it with his singer-songwriter sensibilities to create a raw sound that combines poetic lyrics with his energetic strum." - The Daily Gazette, Schenectady, NY
