David Austin is a Nashville-based singer/songwriter. Starting out in Los Angeles following college, he built a fanbase by gigging constantly and eventually headlining venues like the Hotel Cafe, the Viper Room and the legendary Troubadour. Austin released his first project, Southwood Waltz, in 2019 and after moving to Nashville in 2020, followed it up with Carolina Blue, released in summer ‘22.

​

He now tours frequently throughout the southeast - playing sorority houses, fraternity parties and college town music venues. His music is a reflection of his life - both energetic and melancholic, travel-centered, diverse in influences - searching for home that it may never find while coming to terms with that realization. He’s been called a country artist by people who probably don’t listen to too much country, and an Americana artist by people who do. In his heart, he is a storyteller, and he looks to carry on the tradition of the legendary songwriters like Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel, Amos Lee and John Mayer, Stevie Wonder and Elton John.
