As an emerging contemporary Christian rock artist, David released his first studio recording, The ?Unshackled? EP in 2008, which highlighted David's diversity and songwriting, but he is now excited to announce his second project "Unleashed" and it is ready to release May 1st, 2011. UNLEASHED displays strong, unapologetic musical tips of the hat to the likes of Nickelback, Red, Creed, 3 Doors Down and Daughtry as he wraps his faith-inspired message in a common sounding yet pleasing brand of gritty yet melody driven rock. All in all, this new project represents a very personal view into the heart of David Upton, yet wraps these heartfelt lyrics in a modern rock package produced by Dove Award winning producer - David Garcia for Rock the Soul Productions to bring a solid and relevant record that wont disappoint the rocker, yet still gives the spiritually hungry a full dose of encouragement and inspiration.

Everyone who comes in contact with David recognizes that there is a clear call on his life to worship God with high energy and humble passion. A gifted musician and leader, David's "real" heart for God engages people, drawing them into an encounter with God in a unique and meaningful way.
