Artist History The story of singer, songwriter Dave Pahanish began in southern Pennsylvania. Born in Rice’s Landing, PA in the early 70’s, his musical career started as a piano student. While waiting for a lesson one-summer afternoon, the sounds of a guitar rehearsal next door caught his ear. From that moment he was inseparable from his guitar. Pahanish spent the years to come writing of life and about his one true love. He perfected his craft playing in coffeehouses and busking in parks across Middle America. These travels created the stories of Shine.
