People underestimate just how hard it is to survive the rock & roll dream.

Eva Spence from Rolo Tomassi and myself (taken at the Borderline, London - 4th November 17)

From the debauched underbelly of Worcester’s gigging stratosphere comes the eye-squintingly optimistic King Dave Records. On this website you'll find information on the artists signed to my label, a very full on gig guide with links, photo galleries, promotions and all that malarkey. I like going out on the town especially to dirty places and on holiday to mad places full of weird foreigners who have no boundaries of what is sexually acceptable. Each year I go on holiday to check out the music scenes in different parts of the world and there are sections on here about that.  I film and document every gig I go to, they're all uploaded to my YouTube page and some examples of my best videos can be found on this page.  Nearly all of my friends are musicians or artists and on my recommendations page, I've made a list of a load of them with links to their work. It should also be noted that I've made a point of using only my own pictures/videos/experiences when making this site. Everything is and should be credited to me, play fair and ask before you borrow.

This website is being worked on and updated every day.
