Stompin' Dave
Hi! I'm Stompin' Dave a musician based in Bridport, Dorset, UK. I am a vocalist and multi instrumentalist(guitar/banjo/fiddle/keyboard), and tap dancer dedicated to music. I perform across the UK, and beyond, at festivals, art centres, and music clubs. But, because my family likes to eat, I also play at parties, pubs, and village halls, wherever, and whenever I can.
My first love and main focus is the blues, it's where my creative songwriting flourishes! But I also enjoy performing in other styles of vintage music including bluegrass, country, folk, jazz, rock, rock & roll, and soul. I am available for both public and private events. I'm very happy to focus on one or two genres if requested, or perform a broad mix styles.
I love performing solo, but you'll often find me collaborating with other musicians. I'm very happy to create an ad hoc lineup subject to your requirements. I've done this on many occasions in the past.
