While born and raised in Nashville, TN, David hitchhiked with his guitar in tow to Hollywood during a college Spring break in pursuit of a folk-singing career. With dreams of singing the songs he knew and loved driving him forward, he began playing local venues in the area. However, upon discovery by actor Fess Parker of acclaimed Disney films such as 'Old Yeller' and 'Davy Crockett', and star of the hit television series 'Daniel Boone', David began an acting career instead, appearing in series such as 'The Virginian' as well as a role in 'Daniel Boone'. With the distinction of being the only true "Nashvillian" in the cast, his single film credit would be to play a major role in Robert Altman's Academy-Award-nominated movie, 'Nashville' with Lily Tomlin, Jeff Goldblum, and Henry Gibson. In returning to his musical roots, another career highlight became teaming with folk-singer, Bob Shane of the legendary Kingston Trio (Tom Dooley, Scotch And Soda, etc.) as The Shane Gang. Shortly thereafter, David established his own solo recording career back in Nashville. He quickly hit national country charts with a string of hit singles including 'I'm Walkin'' and 'Wax Museum' (www.chartrecords.net), later to add 5 additional albums; 'Move Two Mountains', 'Hit the Road Jack', 'Rise and Walk', 'I’ll Sing On', and 'Glory Bound' to his decades-spanding career. David now resides in Denver, CO, his home of the past 5 years. With a passion for entertaining and sharing his songs with music lovers of all ages, David currently performs at area venues for private parties, house shows, corporate events, tailgate parties, resort shows, as well as charity benefits. You might even see him at your local Starbucks jamming with customers while enjoying his favorite cup of joe! David Peel captivates his audiences with a large variety of musical styles and crowd- pleasing favorites as well as bringing a fresh sound all his own that people have enjoyed for years and will undoubtedly continue to for years to come.
