Dave has been with U-No-Hoo since 1983, although he has been involved with bands and musical groups since 1975.
His first instrument was the cornet, which he played in various ensembles at school but also with a band called “Memphis Gold”. This band were to be the basis of the “Four Teens” with whom he played bass guitar  from September 1976 until July 1979 .The latter part of 1979 saw the formation of “Newsflash”, of which Dave was a founder member. This band toured the North and North East of England extensively for almost 2 years, playing 28 or more gigs per month until 1981.

After a few weeks break from the constant touring, Dave helped to form another band called “Reaction”, who were designed to play more for the enjoyment of the musicians rather than to earn a living. After playing for 6 months with this band, he was offered a job playing bass for the rock and roll pianist, “Freddie Fingers Lee”. The next 12 months were  very hectic, with several appearances on French TV,  one nighters in the UK from Devon  to Yorkshire, concerts in Paris and a 50 date summer tour of the South of France, working  for Radio Monte Carlo, the largest Radio Station in Europe.

     Dave continues to enjoy his involvement in music, thanks to the ongoing success of   U-No-Hoo!
