They call it Americana -- a blend of rock, folk, blues, country ... you name it. Whatever you call it, it's all original -- and it's the best I can do.
Bio / Background
Performing songwriter David Simpkins has been actively entertaining audiences for over 35 years. He spent the first 22 years of his musical career playing in cover bands in southwestern Virginia.
In 1990, he co-founded an original alternative rock band, the Visible Shivers, based in Blacksburg, VA, that released three full-length recordings and several EPs over a 10-year run.
When the band called it quits, David set out on his own, bolstered by years of experience and a much clearer idea of who and what he was as a songwriter. He has since placed as a finalist in the 2000 Appalachian Fair Best Unknown Country Songwriters competition in Gray, TN and was the winner of the Floyd World Music Festival Showcase Stage Best Song competition in 2002.
He is an active member of the Johnson City TN chapter of the Nashville Songwriters Association International and the Southwest Virginia Songwriters Association of Roanoke VA.
