Bio
Wyoming composer and western performer Dave Munsick has played his music across the west for 40 years. He has worked as a sideman or opened for acts including Charlie Daniels, Chris Ledoux, Ian Tyson, and Lyle Lovett, both as a solo artist and as a member of the bands that he has led. His shows immerse audiences into the songs that he has written and the associated stories that speak to these songs. Shows with his band approach both dance and concert formats.
Dave was recently selected to represent his home state with songs he released off of his Forever West album. He is also available for bookings through the IM tour, an endowment that helps presenters in defraying costs incurred when booking artists from outlying areas. The Little Big Band is the band that Dave uses in the studio as well as when playing for dances, concerts, and festivals. Their unique sound can best be described as Western-Americana; an eclectic mix of folk, rock, and classic country undershot by complex, subtle rhythms that are coupled with western roots lyrics. Though much of what they play is original, they do bring to the stage covers of songs that tend to get people off of chairs and onto dance floors.
