available now on
CD Baby!
Dave Diprose is one
of Australia's finest slide guitarists. He plays classic and original delta
blues in the style of the old bluesmen, evoking the sound and
energy of the Mississippi Juke Joints - like it was when the blues began.
Dave is an
entertaining act with an engaging stage presence who connects well with the
audience. He is highly regarded songwriter who sings about growing up in
rural Australia and of irony and humour in domestic situations and
relationships.Dave is a legend of the resophonic guitar and was one of
the first Melbourne musicians to perform on this iconic instrument. He is also a fine bluegrass player playing traditional
country and swing.
Dave's CD “Train
Don't Run”, available on-line from CD Baby, showcases traditional and
original songs in a pre-war blues styling. Train Don't Run features Dave's
guitar and harp playing and Chris 'Doc' White's mandolin.
