Dave
Molter Short Bio
An accomplished veteran of the Pittsburgh, Midwest and East Coast music
scenes since 1965, Dave Molter counts The Beatles as his primary influence.
"Foolish Heart," Dave's debut EP, has produced four No. 1 singles since its
release in September 2019. Dave's sixth single, "Oh Woman, Don't You Cry,"
debuted at #1 in the UK three days after its release in December 2019. The
songs on "Foolish Heart" are an eclectic mix of styles reflecting the varied
influences Dave listened to while growing up in the Sixties as well as the
influences of world music, reggae, prog rock, psychedelia, Phil Spector,
Brian Wilson, Peter Gabriel and many others.
Wrapping up a phenomenally successful year since the release of his debut
EP, Dave has released his eighth single.
“(Really Nothin’ New) Under the Sun” is a swampy, funky old-school rocker.
It was recorded in Pittsburgh, PA, at Albey Road Studios and was produced
and engineered by Al Snyder (www.alsnydermusic.com.)
Dave’s current plans are to release an EP by the end of 2020 with more EPs
to follow in 2021. Songs will run the gamut from Sixties pop rock to
dramatic, heavily textured tour de forces that would be at home on Seventies
AOR. As on “Foolish Heart,” most of the songs will revolve around the
subject of love in all its diverse guises.
Says Dave: “I’m still blown away by the
response from listeners to the songs on “Foolish Heart.” I’ve heard from
fans and deejays all over the world, and it’s gratifying to know that we
share a common belief in the power of love expressed through music.
“John Lennon said it best in 1967: ‘All you need is love!” I still believe
it!”

the song: Fading Away
An
accomplished veteran of the Pittsburgh, Midwest and East Coast music scenes
since 1965, multi-instrumentalist Dave Molter counts The Beatles as his
primary influence. His first CD of original material, “Mid-Century Man,”
will be released in late 2019.

reflecting the varied influences Dave listened to while growing up in the

love — as Dave sings in "Mid-Century Man" — "an emotion we don't have enough
of."
Says Dave, "John Lennon said it best in 1968: 'All you need is love.' I
still believe it."

the song: Mid-Century Man
An
accomplished veteran of the Pittsburgh, MIdwest and East Coast music scenes
since 1965, Dave counts The Beatles as his primary influence. He is
currently working on a CD of original material , called "Mid-Century Man,"
to be released in late summer 2019.
The songs on the "Mid-Century Man" CD will be an eclectic mix of styles
reflecting the varied influences Dave listened to while growing up in the
Sixties as well as world music, reggae, prog rock, psychedelia, Phil
Spector, Brian Wilson, Peter Gabriel and many others.
Recorded in Pittsburgh, PA., "Mid-Century Man" is produced and engineered by
multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter Buddy Hall. The songs feature
contributions from heavy-hitting, nationally known musicians such as
guitarist and composer Steve Dudas, who played with Ringo Starr and The
Roundheads for more than a decade and continues to record and write with the
former Beatle.

Dave views "Mid-Century Man" as a vehicle to spread a positive message about
the power of love in today's world. The songs have the unifying theme of
love -- as Dave sings in "Mid-Century Man" -- "an emotion we don't have
enough of."
Says Dave, "It's all in there: first love; love lost; love squandered; love
regained; stupid love; funny love; love unrequited; love that makes you want
to scream from the rooftops. Love that makes you kick furniture. I mean ...
doesn't everyone?
"John Lennon said it best: 'All you need is love.' I still believe it."
