Raised in Pine Bluff, Arkansas (home to blues legends Big Bill Broonzy
and Cedell Davis), Dave Sadler began playing guitar at the age of
twelve. Coming from a musical household, that includes a distant
relationship to Johnny Cash, a grandfather who was an amateur minstrel
singer, and a mother who was a piano teacher - it is no small surprise
that Dave continued the musical journey.
Growing up on the edge of the Delta, blues inspired music surrounded
Sadler. Where a typical kid might have been found listening to the
latest top 40 rock hit, Dave, a self-taught musician who plays by ear,
would often be found locked away in his room listening to the likes of
B.B. King and Elmore James, trying to emulate their playing styles.
Also heavily influenced by modern players such as Eric Clapton, Robert
Cray, Stevie Ray Vaughn and others, Dave's playing style is a blend of
blues, rock, jazz and funk, utilizing both electric and acoustic
guitars.
"I have always had a passion for blues, blues/rock and jazz. These
genres seem to influence most everything I play, compose and record",
Dave says.
Dave Sadler is affiliated with BMI as a songwriter/composer publishing
and recording for the independent label, BluezArt Records. DAVE SADLER
