Dave Griffiths is a tweed-clad, tele-toting singer-songwriter based in Dorset, England. As well as his solo material, Dave fronts Chaos Curb Collaboration, a 'groundbreaking' project making music for the church. For 15 years he also led rock band BOSH.
Dave started out as many do, messing around on instruments and borrowed bits of recording equipment as a teenager. Growing up in a musical household and being young and impressionable at the height of 90's Britpop left Dave with a keen love of melodic music. As a boy he knew how to put on vinyl records from his parents collection, bands like Genesis and Dire Straights fed his vivid imagination with colourful images. Then, when he began to buy his own music, Dave absorbed much of the guitar music all around him as a teen, and then diversified wildly at college - discovering electronic music via Aphex Twin and Autechre.
All these influences went into the melting put and now work themselves out in a variety of electronic based (chaos curb collaboration), rock/singer-singer/roots (solo material) and classic rock (BOSH). His catalogue is shot through with a sense of the spiritual and his deeply held faith.
When BOSH joined indie label Risen Records in 2004, things were beginning to pick up for Dave's music career. Gigs went from being occasional to every week. In 2008 Dave went full-time as a gigging musician and now does on average 3 gigs a week. Sort after as a co-writer, and also increasingly involved in production, Dave now has a string of highly acclaimed albums behind him and has worked with some of the biggest names in his field.
Dave is currently working on his first full solo album entitled 'Here and Now', due early 2016.
