You know who you are. Thank you for the great time and moments we spent together, without you, the music would not mean anything. None of us are perfect, and I have made serious errors in my life.

Sounds Like
Strangely, we sound a lot like ourselves. Yes, we have reached that moment where we have our own voices, and continue to grow....
~~~~~The Universe and how we experiance it is all very interesting and wonderful. Enjoy every moment you have, it goes by so quickly! Peace, happiness, Namaste, Dave.
The Dave Lynch Group is about our lives, how we have grown up and become the musicians we are. We express ourselves freely through this art and strive to reach our innermost emotions, simple or complex, through our skills, knowlege, technique, wisdom or lack of it, and raw passion.
We really just love to write and play our butts off. I hope you enjoy the music as much as my friends and I have enjoyed creating it. All of the music you hear on this page is original and self produced, except Ana Maria, which is a Wayne Shorter tune, and a tribute to him as he's had such a huge influence on my spirit.
You'll find us in Sacrameto at Guitar Workshop at 3248 J Street, Sacramento.
