Rose Vincent
Riverbend Church - Client
"I just wanted to thank you again for the incredible performance that you arranged. I can't tell you how many people have told me how beautiful and inspirational it was. Not to mention words like mystical and magical and a host of other descriptions. I agree with them all."
Stephen Doster
East Austin Recording (EAR) - Owner
"Dave Madden has been a joy to work with at our studio, EAR. He plays with confidence, versatility, and musicality. In other words, Dave plays like he means it!"
Cory Witt
Los Angeles, CA - Record Producer
"Berklee capabilities, Austin sensibilities, and just the right amount of irreverence to marry the two. Dave is my first call whether I've written the part or not."
Amy Edwards
The Amy Edwards Show (Podcast) - Owner/Podcaster/Entertainer
"Dave has not only been a blast to work and perform with, but he also proved to be incredibly competent and beyond adept at facilitating all the moving parts of what I needed done: charting, working out background vocals and arranging, helping me find the right members for my band, coordinating practices, and the list goes on... I consider myself so lucky to have found someone so talented and cool. I love Dave!"
