Industry reviews
"There's something pure about David Easton. He seems to have a direct connection to his soul when he sings and plays. His talent as a vocalist and keyboardist, as well as the light inside him are undeniable."
- Lorraine Ferro, singer/voice teacher affiliated with National Academy of Popular music and Songwriter's Hall of Fame (www.lorraineferro.com)
"The David Easton Band is an exciting jazz-pop ensemble playing sophisticated original tunes. David is a dynamo on vocals and keyboards, and his energy is infectious...the David Easton Band has a rhythm engine that makes the whole thing rock out with a dynamic that is sure to please. Don't miss this group!"
- Joe Bouchard ( www.joebouchard.com )
Former Bassist and Founding member of Blue Oyster Cult
Laying down the sweet’n’soulful heavenly funk with supreme ease and skill (the incredibly hip’n’happening opening track is even named “Funky Snoopy”!), this album hits a strong and invigorating bouncy and bumpin’ groove that rarely let’s up for a minute. The diggin’ basslines, zoned-to-the-rippin’-bone keyboards, sturdy drums, and smooth riffin’ guitars keep things lively and thrilling throughout. David Easton’s pleasant, comforting voice and smart songwriting make for a potent and impressive double whammy. A smack dead on the money terrific album.

Fan Reviews
"I never expected the kind of response, talent and generosity that you have shown... I cannot begin to tell you the excitement that buzzes around Universal in the days before you come to perform, the clients talk about it, hang up posters and truly look forward to your performances. You have totally been their favorite entertainer. You barely pack up and pull out and they are asking me when you are coming back. I hope that you will come back and play again"
- Robert Greco Executive Director, Universal Institute
A Great Album!!!
"It was refreshing to listen to a great rock album. The music had a classic-rock feel but with a touch of jazz. All of the songs were well written. I would gladly recommend this album to my friends"
- DocEd
David You've Done It!
"I have known and followed this artist for a while. I have wondered how David would ever be able to capture his multiple styles on a single album. From Jazz to Classical, Rock, Funk and Pop, David has them all together on this cd and they blend very well. 'Around the world' is a standout for me. The cd also benefits from James Reeno's drumming and mastering skills (Spazzoid Studios). Great job! YOU DID IT!"
- Mano Reza
