"Bedroom Demos"
"I like to think of it as 'organic hip-Pop, baked in southern-fried soul'."
~ David Boyles, when asked to describe his musical style
In a current pop climate that is chock full of sampled music & copycat artists, North Carolina native David Boyles breathes life into the music universe with his organic funk, spinning stories that draw the listener in with a spiritual, sexual, and original flare.
Boyles is a multi-faceted artist - he began his musical career singing in church choir. He played drums in high school, and then went on to study music at Western Carolina University, majoring in jazz bass performance with a minor in jazz guitar.
"Bedroom Demos", which was written, performed, and recorded entirely by David in his bedroom on his 2-track 'm-box', takes it's listeners on a never-ending journey through thought-provoking themes and genre-breaking sounds.
Recent placements of David's music include: "Good Thing" on NBC's Scrubs.
In March "Saturday", "Right Back", and "Good Thing" were each featured on Garageband.com's Track of the Week.
Like some of the contemporaries before him that he lists as influences (Prince, D'Angelo, Jamiroquai, Thicke), David Boyles has a style that cannot be instantly categorized. A sonic hybrid of R&B, funk, reggae, acoustic, and soul all mesh together to create an atmosphere so vital that people keep coming back for more, as evidenced by his frequent standing room only shows across the country.

My favourite artist in forever is Jamiroquai, and this boy is sounding fairly similar! He's awesome, sounds a bit like Kyle Riabko and has a fair bit of talent. He could pass of as Jason Mraz on some tracks, which is amazing!

This is one of the most exciting cds I've ever purchased! I bought one at the House of Blues in Los Angeles and I liked it so much I tell all my friends to buy the cd too. I've almost worn it out in my car - it makes my longass drive to and from work on the freeway bearable. Favorite songs: Saturday, Good Thing, and It's On. Can't wait to hear this on the radio someday!
