Something's Got To Give

David Bondze - Featuring David Bolton

I believe music is supposed to be real and true, that is why the songs I compose, write, and perform are that organic, exciting, euphoric, wild, intense, joyful, gleeful: Music that is vocally excellent, has depth of character and emotion, and has lyrics that leave a lasting impression. Music that makes big statements, powerful narratives with a profound message. I have evolved as a man, teacher, friend and as a human being - who has learnt from my mistakes and accepted that - change is important. And in-as-much as not all change is bad, I have grown to be more mindful and accountable of the decisions that I make in life. My journey as a man, and as a musician has been full of authenticity because I did not deny my ups and downs. As a songwriter, my life is always reflected in my kind of music. And so being human, having experienced love, betrayal, breakups, hurt, disappointments and failure, knowing the blissful joy of being a Communication Skills teacher, I think it just widens and deepens my life experiences. When my life is fuller, my music is fuller. And from a more literal perspective, I definitely pull from my life when it comes to this project. I do not allow environmental factors to deter who I am as a person. I am now in a place where I have to be truer to myself first before anyone else. If I am not real, how can I expect others to be real with me? All songs on this project are original compositions, and my music is open to a variety of genres and styles. The contents are really strong, compelling songs with emotionally touching melodies and captivating lyrics that have great, big, infectious choruses. My vocal performance is solid with a distinctive, mature style delivery. There are also elements of cute, catchy, upbeat love songs as well as slow, heartwarming love and inspirational ballads. The important part of it all is that – they sound great, are emotional and memorable. If you are a lover of beautiful music that is Adult contemporary, melodically memorable, conceptually fresh and lyrically visual: Music that inspires and invokes confidence and optimistic feelings, '34’ (My 16-Track Debut Album title: To be released in December, 2019) is your best choice of interest. My Music is written and composed with YOU in mind. And with you at heart, I pour myself into my songs. I believe I have the unique ability to write revealing nuanced lyrics that capture the ebb and flow of life. I hope it brings you smiles and love
