David Nyro (rhymes with hero) is an award-winning (Four Golden Kayaks from Indie Music People), genre-chameleon, confessional singer-songwriter.

He's traveled the world and lived in 13 states. David's worn a lot of hats. Dad, radio and club DJ, TV news reporter and anchor, professional fundraiser, writer, artist, factory worker, record store clerk, barista, census-taker, and more.

He once almost joined the circus to take care of the elephants, but was scared away by a very tall, sinister clown who stalked him and a tyrannical prima donna elephant prince who was a dead ringer for Joffrey from "Game of Thrones." That, and the fact that the person he would've replaced was killed by an elephant. (Maybe that was a test?)

His songs come from life experiences and draw inspiration from thousands of sources: Joni Mitchell, Gram Parsons, Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, Leonard Cohen, Gillian Welch, Mumford and Sons, The Civil Wars, and Marvin Gaye, to name but a few. He sings and plays guitar, piano, harmonica and banjo (sorta). So far, he's released three e.p.'s, one album, and 10 singles. David plans/hopes/dreams to go back into the studio in 2022 to record again. He's written a few songs in the past few years. Around 1,400, he figures. A few of them are probably decent, right? He's only memorized ten and a half of them.
