The Dave Rich Band are a 5 piece band fronted by Dave Rich, a Cornish singer/songwriter who has gigged around the south west for many years. With their unique rock/folk/jazz style they’ve released a critically acclaimed album entitled “Overload”, which was recently voted one of the top 10 albums of 2006 by Graeme Scott of BobHarris.org. They’ve been working hard over the past few years, touring the UK and building a loyal fanbase. They have appeared on BBC radio Devon, Cornwall, Leeds, Cardiff, West Midlands and Chester and have achieved great reviews from Guitar Techniques magazine, Maverick magazine and many more local magazines, newspapers and websites. They cleverly blend technical musicianship of the highest order with infectious hooks and tunes - and all with an obvious enjoyment on stage.

What the Press Say
Overload is definitely one of those rare releases that gets all the
ingredients right. Even more delightful is that Rich is a very able lead
guitarist, and not many new British bands can claim that particular
advantage.
(Guitar Techniques magazine)
Dave Rich is a fine lead vocalist who is also a very good songwriter.
This is a creditable first album release by a promising group still in
their early days, who could go a long way. (Maverick Magazine)
While singer Dave Rich has the kind of voice that sits comfortably in
the mix rather than soaring above it, he extracts every last ounce out
of the changes of mood that make Overload an intricate and delicately
fascinating piece of work. (Hawick News)
The Dave Rich Band may draw on many influences but if Overload proves
one thing, its that when you put your trust in your own talent, the
results are magical. (Net Rhythms)
