David Irvine's Safe Harbor is a diverse collection of well-crafted, original tunes, ranging from roots rock to pedal steel flavored country. The songwriting exhibits a sophistication and a sense of humor that calls to mind John Hiatt. David's other influences include The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Gram Parsons, The Grateful Dead, Steve Earle and Tom Waits. On Safe Harbor, David's first solo effort, he plays acoustic, electric and slide guitar, bass, resonator guitar, mandolin, piano and percussion. Also contributing parts are Stephanie Irvine - drums and percussion, Ted Etheridge - drums and percussion, Martin Parker - drums, Stan Briggs - bass, Frank Gordon - electric guitar, Lewis Goodrich - pedal steel and dobro, Bobby Cherry - dobro and banjo, and Janet Smithwick - harmony vocals. David also plays in the band, Root Cellar, along with his wife Stephanie on drums, his brother, Rob Irvine on acoustic guitar, and Ricky Etheridge on guitar and bass. David is also a member of the recording venture known as 2:20 Dirt Road. Along with Van Thorne of NYC and Jeff Green of Rhode Island, 2:20 Dirt Road has been recording for several years and should release an album in 2008.
