D. A. King (www.d-a-king.com)   Bio
  D. A. King (after a hike on the Appalachian Trail)I grew up in Louisville, Kentucky in a home full of music.  Whether cleaning the house on Saturday mornings or working on the car, there was always music in the air.  Since my parents were part of the first rock 'n roll generation, the sounds of Elvis, Tom Jones, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Chuck Berry, Simon & Garfunkel and many others from the '50s and '60s were often on the household turntable.  However, I was a child of the '70s and '80s, so my early dreams of being like Elvis gave way to wanting to write meaningful songs like those written by artists like Bruce Springsteen, James Taylor, John Mellencamp, Sting, U2, and Mark Knopfler, among countless others.

The bottom line for me is creativity.  I thoroughly enjoy the creative process of writing songs and producing records.  Music has healed my spirit, and allowed me to touch the hearts of others.  I've seen the power that music has and the positive impact that it makes on lives, and I know that in some small way, my songs sometimes provide a way for me to serve others.  My hope is that my music will somehow touch you, and maybe even inspire you.  Who knows?  A song might help us find our way...
