Long admired for his twisted, slippery, shifting rhythms and relentless determination, he’s taken his natural talent and single-minded focus, coupled with a dedication to constant improvement, and he’s turned it into a signature sound, one permanently linked to the legendary Tower of Power, itself less a band than a musical world unto its own. A poppin’ snare, sneaky ghost notes, an itchy bass-drum foot, and accents and stabs that provide unexpected but perfect punctuation: Dave’s groove bumps it up, and when he plays, nobody can sit still.
