Alan D. David. Songwriter and performer in various musical genres. By trade, I am a lead guitarist. But, in recent years I have become more of a songwriter/comp
For over 40 years I played lead guitar and did back-up vocals in various country bands. It has been one of the greatest thrills of my life. But, these days I stay at home and compose songs, both lyrics and music. My writing style is much broader than just country music. I also write southern rock, a little blues, lots of smooth jazz and movie themes and even some latin music. I have been writing for about 20 years and hope to for quite a few more years.

Story behind the song
I Had Written Months Ago But Never Could Write a Decent Lyric For It. Then, One Day Last Week, The Lyric Came To Me From Nowhere And I Wrote It In Lees Than 20 Minutes! I Was Listening To A Nora Jones Song. Perhaps Herr Abstract Lyric Writing Style Influenced Me.
