Artist History
David started his journey with the release of his 1992 CD, "Plaything". This disc contained several foot stomping tracks with attitude that became an instant hit in many dance clubs. People came to see who the person was that belted the tunes they frequently danced to, like 'Rhythm, Testify & Vanity'.
By 1994 David slowly created a name for himself and was traveling frequently. Thus, it was time to head back to the studio for another CD and to build a better show. He added a couple of young ladies by the name of Camella Fury - who had began working with David on the 'Plaything' disc - and Marley Howard. Together they formed Danse Wrapture, and propelled audiences into a frenzy with their tight dance routines and powerful vocals. With the release of 'Scrapbook' came newspaper interviews, radio play, club dates and a hectic pace which included daily rehearsals for the trio. David recalls, "We showed a lot of people who doubted us, what we could really do!" However, a time of setback was apon the artist.
Power struggles with his manager and the dealings with the corrupt side of the music industry began to take their toll on David Wood. Danse Wrapture began to hive and develop their personal lives and focus on family. David continued with solo appearances until the time came to slow down. "I was beginning to go to a dark & dangerous place in my life", said David. I just needed to stop and discover who I was outside of the music.
Nearly 3 years after the success of 'Scrapbook', David Wood released a new CD appropriately titled, 'From The Ashes' in 1997. "Dedicated to the legendary Phoenix, the spiritual fire needed to rise from the ashes and begin again", appeared on the label. This disc reflected the deeper spirituality and inner strength of David Wood. A hauntingly powerful sound that is prevalent in his music to this day.
Well worth the wait, in 2001 David Wood releases his latest and most creative compilation to date. The throbbing & swirling sounds of 'Wytch' take you to another world and back leaving chills up your spine. Small events and concert appearances continue to populate David Wood's schedule while preparation and promotion are under way for his upcoming CD with the tenative tile: 'Love Child From 69'. |
