It's been seventeen years since David LaMotte has had a real job or a real haircut. No one could accuse him of being a slacker, though. In that same time he has released 10 CDs and performed 2000 shows in 45 states and on four continents. The Boston Globe says he "pushes the envelope with challenging lyrics and unusual tunings, but he also pays homage to folk tradition." The Washington Times describes LaMotte's music as "guitar spanking open-tuning grooves as well as gentle folk-tinged pop," and folk music magazine Dirty Linen calls him “a folk poet of elegant simplicity.” His latest release, Change, hit #11 on the Folk-DJ chart and took four awards in the SAW Mid-Atlantic Song Contest, including Silver in Instrumental and Gold in Folk.
David maintains a tireless tour schedule of about 200 road days each year, but he does much more than that. He’s also the author of a successful children’s book based on his award-winning children's song S.S. Bathtub.
