New York, NY. (Top40 Charts/ Numinous Music) - DAVID TAMAOKA is a rare find! Think 'music to enjoy while basking in a Hawaiian sunrise.' Add an indie singer-songwriter music edge and you're there.
David is a BMI Award winner, and the most sought after opening act in Hawaii for all U.S Mainland touring acts. He is also the next big "breakout" artist to come out of Hawaii since Jack Johnson.
David has been compared to Jason Mraz, John Mayer, Justin Nozuka, Paolo Nutini & Jack Johnson. He is the voice and songs that are rare and true, complemented by a stellar stage presence.
David has played with or opened for Vampire Weekend, Jason Mraz, Meiko, 311, Hoobastank, Matt Costa, Hot Hot Heat, New Found Glory, Yellow Card, Blink 182, Mae, Joshua Radin, Secondhand Serenade, etc.
David has a large industry "buzz" around him right now in Hawaii as well as the U.S. Mainland. His soon to be completed solo debut 'Canefield Hero' is being produced by Hawaii's first Grammy winner Charles Brotman.
David Tamaoka is representing The First Ever Contemporary Hawaiian Music Presence at SXSW this year, from March 16th - March 21st.
