About Dave Nachmanoff:

Not many people get to realize their early dreams – Dave Nachmanoff has toured the world both on his own, and as the guitarist and opening act for Al Stewart (“Year of the Cat”, “Time Passages”), at venues as far ranging as the Royal Albert Hall in London, England to The Birchmere in Alexandria, Virginia. From performing with folk legend Libba Cotton, at the age of 9, to playing in a rock band with his two brothers. 

Dave went on to earn a PhD in Philosophy at UC Davis and slowly built a grassroots following touring all over the world. In addition, he writes and records custom songs for clients and uses his recording studio to produce other artists. A truly independent musician, Dave’s career is varied and never predictable.

We are very fortunate that Dave & Friends will be appearing at what we know will be a terrific concert benefiting a great cause.
