About Dave B

Dave B is a multi-talented artist who raps, sings, writes and produces from Seattle, Washington. He was raised singing in gospel choirs and is the son of a preacher. His sound organically blends elements of hip-hop, R&B, jazz and funk with conscious-driven lyrics, soulful melodies and memorable production. His depth and versatility can be attributed to vast musical inspirations: gospel icons Fred Hammond, Kirk Franklin; hip-hop luminaries Andre 3000, Missy Elliott, and Kanye West; R&B songstresses Aaliyah and Erykah Badu; jazz legend Thelonious Monk; and rock god Jimi Hendrix.

Seattle Times declared Dave B “one of Seattle’s brightest hip-hop talents,” who won first prize in many singing competitions including MoPOP’s Sound Off competition. His debut music release Punch Drunk EP (2015) quickly garnered supporter from tastemakers 2Dopeboyz who called the music “remarkably exceptional” and DJ Booth named him “a revolutionary.” NPR’s First Listen debuted his next project Tomorrow (2016) and critical acclaim poured in from Pigeons & Planes, HotNewHipHop, Okayplayer, XXL, Essenceand more. With his latest effort Pearl (2017) Pitchfork says he is “naturally melodic” and Complex says “he’s a leading voice” for his hometown.

Dave B’s engaging live performances have led to tour openings at Seattle’s largest music venue the Key Arena along with direct support slots on tours across the U.K., Europe and Australia. Dave has sold-out venues along the West Coast as well as his hometown live-music landmarks Neumos and The Neptune.
