David Lambert is one of the little known, best kept secrets of the upstate of South Carolina. No Novice to the singer/songwriter scene, David is a veteran of the acoustic guitar and its craft, possessing a unique playing and writing style of his own. As a songwriter, “…David writes from the heart and gut of life, telling the story without a sugar coat, and, would rather re-write the song 15 times to get it right than just crank out quantity…” It has been said that David’s writing/compositions "break all the rules, but it works…” Born in the small upstate Spartanburg town of Pacolet, South Carolina, David honed his writing based on local stories, legends and a bit of family history. David always had plenty of music around him while growing up in what started out as a two room house built by his great grandfather, “Captain Turner,” the real Railroad Man, section boss for the then Southern Railroad, in one of his songs. When asked, David replies, “I try to write from the heart and soul of life and its experiences, both good and bad that forge your character. I’ll spend a little extra time on it to get it 'right,' rather than to just say it's 'good enough.” He wants the listener to hear the message, or story, and let it burn in real deep... Although very hard to classify David’s material into one style, it has best been described Country with a side of Americana, a twist of Rock, all seasoned together to a Southern Rock bite.

David decided to get serious about writing and producing his own material. “It kind of hit me that this is what I am supposed to be doing..” he says. His debut CD was released in 2007 with the title track, By The Carolina Moon. That effort earned him the 2007 EIA Male Country/Pop Vocalist of the Year in Nashville, TN, in October of 2007. David’s, tribute single to the decayed textile industry, Rusty Tracks, was picked up by NBT Records, early in 2008. David has become a veteran of the Nashville Singer/Songwriter circuit since then and loves to participate as often as possible. In David’s words, “Nashville is the singer/songwriter’s playground, a place to express true musicianship in the presence of those truly skilled in the art…” David’s newest compilation, as yet untitled, is due for release in mid 2010.

Liner Notes: From the outset of getting back into music after raising a family and serving +20 years in the Army, Dave is now focusing his efforts on what he's always wanted to accomplish. His roots in Southern Rock and Country run deep and permeate his drive and attitude on stage. Dave and the band, The Carolina Rails, are well-known from the Blue Ridge to the Carolina coast for their distinctive brand of renegade, rocking country music. David’s debut CD, “By the Carolina Moon,” was released in mid 2007, and by October the single “Speed of Lonely” had earned him the 2007 EIA Male Country/Pop Vocalist of the Year in Nashville, and NBT Records also included the single “Rusty Tracks” on the popular “Ride the Train” series of CDs. David has played numerous venues on the Nashville Singer/Songwriter circuit, featured in the World Class Songwriter’s Showcase. He has had the privilege of sharing venues such as the legendary Nashville Palace and 12th & Porter with the likes of Martin Young, Jen Ketner, Keith Stegall, as well as many others in the industry. In David’s words, “Nashville is the singer/songwriter’s playground, a place to express true musicianship in the presence of those immersed in the art…” His sophomore CD, Give Me That Gravel Road, is in crude form and just waiting for final writing and music score efforts.
