Live At Dark Star: Music by Dave Tate

Critically acclaimed and award-winning Singer-Songwriter Dave Tate’s soulful music combines dynamic vocals with intimate acoustic guitar to present a unique and introspective indie-folk sound. From Sometimes high and soaring, sometimes hushed and inviting, Tate’s heartfelt voice weaves his poetic lyrics through soundscapes of finger-style acoustic guitar and percussive rhythms. Tate has been hailed as “One of the most unique artists ever.” by Heaven Magazine and “An artist who is so incredibly good that you can't really believe not all music magazines are writing about him already.” by Folk Form in the Netherlands. Newly relocated to the Central Coast of California, Tate is a native of the red rock desert of Zion National Park. Tate’s music has often been inspired by the towering beauty of his red rock mountain homeland and is now inspired by the vast horizons of the Central Coast. 

Performances often include a mix of intimate folk, and upbeat acoustic pop/rock originals as well as classic and modern singer/songwriter covers.

Live At Dark Star: The Sound Effect band has been working in the music industry since 1978, providing entertainment for private engagements, clubs, fairs, and fund-raisers. We play a variety of styles including Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Pop, Funk, Rock and Jazz and pride ourselves on our dedication to truly LIVE music. All instruments are played live and NO pre-recorded background tracks are never used at any live performances.  Each individual’s outstanding talent shines through at each performance and allows the freedom to change up the groove at any given moment.  This keeps us fresh and that much more ready to give you a show you’ll never forget!  The fact that the core members of the group have been together for over 20 years makes this possible. Having performed together for so many years also gives them the personality and “tightness” that distinguishes us from any other group.
