Bio
David Theroff is one of the few "Polymath" people around. He has extensive interests in Music, Afrikan Drumming, Ambient and Electronic music, Kung Fu, Tai Chi Chuan, Scuba Diving and Photography. His acoustic music is soft with an occasional edge influenced by Doc Watson and others. His ambient music directs ones mood and physical well being.
About
David's acoustic guitar and singing have been labeled "Art Music", and as one artist put it "His music puts you in a calm state of mind with poetic inscriptions of life". His live performances consist of his guitar and voice of his own material, with an occasional cover song.
He has a very diverse music background with Guitar, Voice, Harmonica, Keyboards, Afrikan Drums and Electronic music.
With 10 album releases and another on the way, his music has covered Acoustic Singer/Songwriter, New Age and World Afrikan Drumming
Look for his next album due out in 2008.
(His CD's are available at digital stores like iTunes & CDBaby and around 60 others).
