The New York Times writes, "David Berkeley sings in a lustrous melancholy voice with shades of Tim Buckley and Nick Drake. As his melodies ascend to become benedictions and consolations, the music shimmers and peals." The Atlanta-based songwriter received ASCAP's coveted Johnny Mercer Songwriting Award, and his song "Fire Sign" was featured on CBS-TVs "Without a Trace." His latest CD/DVD "Live from Fez" was released last fall.
