Dave Walker - Acoustic Lounge

Dave played guitar and sang in the Nottingham-based groups Fieldwork and C-Cat Trance. Fieldwork appeared in many folk clubs, pubs and festivals on the folk circuit in England and, occasionally, France in the eighties and nineties. C-Cat Trance released several albums on the Ink label, and toured intermittently in Europe during the same period. Dave relocated to New Zealand in 2008 and has been a Devonport local for five years.

His solo material ranges from self-penned songs to versions of traditional songs, to covers by artists including Neil Young, Nick Drake, Richard Thompson, Kevin Coyne, The Band, The Shins, Joe Purdy, Grant Lee Buffalo, and The Tragically Hip.

Dave combines fingerstyle guitar and strumming patterns on his Lowden and Williams acoustic guitars, which often find themselves in alternative tunings.
