David Ramirez back in the Netherlands in May

12-12-2019

David Ramirez writes melodic, brooding songs of love and life, delivering them with perfect pitch and regret. Young, but hopeful despite his well-worn scars. His work is profound and accessible, not much country except an occasional whiff of pedal steel, and his young catalog is deep.  

Ramirez describes himself more as a storyteller than a musician. Initially focusing on solo work, he grew tired of the solitude of the one-man band and is now creating a musical family to share the stage with, a group of artists who understand and emphasize his messages.  

In his vividly imagined and passionately performed songs David Ramirez takes in the world from his unique perspective: “Being half white and half Mexican has made this current political climate especially interesting. So many cultures in this country are being viewed as un-American and it breaks my heart. My family have raised children here, created successful businesses here, and are proud to be a part of this country. Most of what I've seen as of late is misplaced fear. I wanted to write about that fear and how, instead of benefiting us, it sends us spiraling out control.

An open heart, a vulnerable soul. A serious contender with a bright future, or a dark one. You be the judge. David Ramirez will be in the Netherlands late May:
05/28 Leiden, NL - Q-Bus
05/29 Groningen, NL - Der Aa- Theater
