Vancouver singer/songwriter, David Blair (runner-up for the ‘Best Adult Contemporary Male Artist’ – Toronto Exclusive Magazine Awards), grew up with many different musical influences. A classically trained pianist, he didn’t start playing guitar until after highschool. He released his first solo EP, ‘Songs of Love and Introspection’ in 2006, which won several song writing awards, including three honourable mentions from ‘Billboard’s World Song Writing Competition’.
He has toured widely across North America in support of his first full length album, ‘Hard To Control’ (‘Best Contemporary Album’ award winner – Toronto Exclusive Magazine) and his latest, produced by Winston (Hannah Georgas, Hey Ocean) entitled ‘Things Left Unsaid’. He has performed across Canada and in the US from New York to LA, including major venues such as the Viper Room and the House of Blues in Hollywood.
