David Bromberg
Inspired by the music of Pete
Seeger and the Weavers, among others, he began studying the guitar at age 13.
After graduating from Tarrytown High School, he enrolled at Columbia University
intent on a career as a musicologist. During this period he discovered the old
recordings of Blind Blake, Lonnie Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy, Marshall Owens,
Luke Jordan and other great country bluesmen, as well as contemporary recordings
of B.B.King, Freddie King and Albert King. He studied with Rev. Gary Davis for
several years and as Rev. Davis said, “I have no children but I have several
sons”. David was a son to the great Reverend.
Drawn to Greenwich Village's flourishing coffeehouse
folk music scene of the mid-1960's, David left Columbia University and opted to
devote full time to his music. Shortly thereafter, his extraordinary guitar
picking and exceptional stylistic range brought him to the attention of many
other musicians: Bob Dylan, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Tom Paxton, and Chubby
Checker are only a few of the notables who sought David out as a back-up artist
for recording. In all he has played as a sideman on over 100 albums.
A singular performer/writer/arranger, David's
remarkable musical versatility and innovative resourcefulness have earned vast
critical and popular acclaim. He is also impossible to classify: As one critic
perceptively wrote, "David Bromberg fits no pigeonholes. He is part of
everything contemporarily musical. He is a product of blues, country, jazz,
folk, and classical music. From his early success as a guitar virtuoso, Mr.
Bromberg has developed into a brilliant entertainer."

David Bromberg - David Bromberg And His Big Band DVD
For a man who quit an established recording career
in order to study the fine art of making violins, David Bromberg sure knows how
to work a room. A veteran sideman to Dylan, Ringo Starr and Jerry Jeff Walker,
as well as a solo performer and bandleader of more than 40 years standing, the
bearded and bespectacled Bromberg may have kept a low profile through the
so-called MTV era. But he didn’t sleep through the more recent recording
industry implosion and its attendant rise of the Pod People. Rather, he took his
boundary busting energy back to the live stage, with the Count Basie Theatre in
Red Bank, New Jersey playing a big role in this master entertainer’s game plan.
The multi-instrumentalist and musicologist has made the Count Basie Theatre a
crucial pit stop in his annual tour schedule for each of the last four years ...
While Bromberg may take the spotlight for an unaccompanied number or two, it’s
his role as bandleader and raconteur that prompted the New York Times to brand
him “electrifying.” A performance by the 12-piece David Bromberg Big Band
fireballs forward like a bull in a used record shop, tracing its own musical
logic — Bob Wills to Bob Dylan to Bo Diddley to Dave Dudley — with station stops
anywhere from Sam Cooke to “a bluegrass tribute to Ethel Merman.” Not to mention
some fondly remembered originals from his vintage albums and a lot of things
that you thought had been written by the Grateful Dead, Patsy Cline, Cab
Calloway or even the Clash.
