New CD Release By David Watt Besley Featuring Former Bon Jovi Member Will
Make A Believer Out Of You
1/16/2012 - St. Augustine, FL - The music industry is buzzing about the debut
CD release by David Watt Besley titled 'Believe These Eyes', which upon
listening will make a believer out of you! Featuring former Bon Jovi member Kurt
Johnston and RPM member Barry Dunaway, along with a host of other top Northeast
Florida musicians, David has created a unique sound. If you molded Cat Stevens
and John Prine you would come up with David Watt Besley. Freelance writer
Richard Wall says, "I really got the Cat Stevens influence, particularly in
David's singing style. But the songs have a newness to them; they are well
written, telling his stories from the heart, along with some sterling accents on
a solidly enjoyable musical foundation, which suits the material." Inside
sources say that ex-Bon Jovi Kurt Johnston contributes some memorable piano and
guitar parts to 'Believe These Eyes'. "He is a good friend and we have done many
projects together through the years and have played a lot of music together,"
says David.
Virginia-born singer/songwriter David Watt Besley currently resides in Saint
Augustine, Florida. In the mid-seventies David was part of the band Saucer, who
were one of the first US bands looked at by Virgin Records. In the late
seventies David played bass and wrote music with the NorthStar Band, one of
Washington, DC's most influential music groups. In the early 1980s David toured
with Bob Margolin (Muddy Waters). In 1986 he joined his brother Ed Pickett and
formed The Seiners, based out of Jekyll Island, Georgia and toured the
southeast. In the early '90s David joined the group Those Guys (several times
voted Saint Augustine's #1 band). The band also included Artimus Pyle (Lynyrd
Skynrd) and Banner Thomas (Molly Hatchet). In 2009 he reformed Northstar with
his brother Ed and signed a publishing deal with Shadow Mountain Music. In 2010
David put together The Big Lonesome, a group featuring some of David's favorite
local players and writers. During this time he also started a solo career simply
called "DAVE". Even though David loves to get together with Northstar and The
Big Lonesome, he has found that his solo career is the most enjoyable - Dave and
his music. Which leads to the release of his critically acclaimed debut CD
'Believe These Eyes'; a CD that has been receiving praise from press and fans
alike worldwide.
"There is no real concept behind the CD," David explains. "It was just a group
of songs I put together for my first solo release. A friend of mine called me
after listening to 'Believe These Eyes' and jokingly said, 'Stop writing songs
about my life!' Whatever is in my heart at the time comes out in my song
lyrics." David is currently playing select gigs in support of his latest CD
release.
With longtime friend and co-producer Jim Stafford (Eclipse Recording Company),
David had been busy over the last year and a half recording his sophomore CD
'Hopeless Romantic' to be released later this year. Along with Kurt Johnston and
Barry Dunaway, who also worked with Survivor, Pat Travers, Yngwie Malmsteen and
many other notable bands, David has used many talented people to record on
'Believe These Eyes' and his forthcoming release and is very proud of the
contributions they made: Wayne Johnston, Rob Peck, Chris McVey, Ed Pickett,
Woody Pernell, Rusty Springfield, Janine Newfield, Michael Howard, Michael Houpt
and Marc Douglas Berardo. David also had two lifelong friends he played with in
the '60s, Jim Miner and Chuck Caudill, join him on the recording sessions.
Finally David had this to impart: "Music is my life, it is what makes my world
go around. I have had the chance to hang with many great writers and players
over the years. I have been blessed with a great audience that supports my
music. There have been so many magic moments over the years. To me that's what
music is all about, sitting down with other writers and creating something."
