Lost & Found
David Garfield’s mission statement is "I make music."  And "make music" he does, as a world-renowned keyboard artist, producer, and composer. Be it jazz, rock, funk, or world beat  -- he is the creative force behind the production of many internationally acclaimed recordings.David started his career with jazz greats such as Willie Bobo, Freddie Hubbard, and Tom Scott in the 70s.  After being on the LA scene for several years, he moved into the vast studio world during its heyday and earned a reputation for fine craftsmanship and versatility.  This work eventually led to composing opportunities for television, film, and commercials (NBC/Disney/Nippon Television/RTL Germany).During the 80s Garfield arranged and produced many top Japanese artists, and went on to produce his own projects for release in Japan.  For the past 20 years, he has enjoyed continued popularity and success in that part of the world.David’s access to top studio musicians and state of the art equipment led him to start his own production company, Creatchy Productions.  His Creatchy Records label soon followed.His first international release on Creatchy, "Tribute to Jeff", featured 78 musicians and artists, including Don Henley, Eddie Van Halen, Michael McDonald, and Richard Marx, a virtual who’s who of the music industry. Critically acclaimed worldwide, this project reached the top ten charts in Japan (Pop) and the U.S. (NAC).  David quickly followed up "Tribute to Jeff" with "I Am The Cat…Man," which has also received critical success around the globe.In addition to these solo endeavors, David frequently collaborates with guitarist Steve Lukather (Toto) in the band Los Lobotomys and drummer Vinnie Colaiuta (Sting) in the band Karizma.  These two bands have released eight CDs under the Creatchy Records label and have toured the world extensively.Garfield also has ongoing music relationships with George Benson (he is currently Benson’s Music Director), Boz Scaggs and Natalie Cole.  And over the years, he has recorded with Cher, Spinal Tap, The Rippingtons, and Larry Carlton and has performed live with Michael Bolton, The Blues Brothers, Brenda Russell, and Rick Braun."Giving Back" is David Garfield’s brand new release, which once again features world-class musicians and artists.  Recorded in both Los Angeles and New York, these 13 hot new tracks reflect a fresh direction for his West Coast Sound.  He is enjoying extremely positive feedback from his international fan base and from the advance reviews of his U.S. industry contacts.   With the release of this new CD, David is continuing a wide range of other activities.  He is performing worldwide with his own band and as a guest artist with George Benson and others.  In addition to his instructional videos and CDs, his new book, Pop and Rock Keyboards, will be available soon from Hal Leonard Publishing.He continues to produce other artists and groups including Oleta Adams, Flora Purim, and Los Lobotomys.  And David is continuing to write and produce his own music, with several new projects due to be released in the coming year.
