About the Artist
DAVID HOUSTON (Score) David Houston has been in the music business for over 30 years, starting out playing guitar for PUBLIC NUISANCE. He has been called the "songwriter's songwriter." And with a gold record, studio stints with the likes of Todd Rundgren and members of the Temptations and production credits that read like a local Who's Who. David Houston has worked steadily to establish himself as one of the area's foremost producers.

After PUBLIC NUISANCE’S hope for a label deal eventually faded and Houston returned to Sacramento where he continued to play, occasionally visiting LA to record. Such ventures, however, were costly and Houston hit upon the idea to record at home. Using an eight-track machine, Houston built a makeshift recording studio in his mother's back yard where he recorded not just his music, but helped finance the cost of the equipment by working with other bands. In due time, the enterprise moved out of the yard, evolving into Moon Studios where Houston went on to work with such names as Club Noveau, earning a platinum record for his engineering work on Club Noveau's smash hit "Lean on Me", and Tony, Toni, Tone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dave Houston is GREAT!, October 22, 2002

By	Jonathan D. Myers "mozbrat" (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was actually an awkward teenager when this movie was being put together, and somehow I ended up in it, as Peter (aka Santa Claus). I just saw the film, some years later, and the music is haunting. I've played with Dave Houston and he is a great guy, but his music speaks for itself. Dark, haunting, with elements of Leonard Cohen, if you haven't heard him, you need to. If you like Cohen, Elliot Smith (circa Either/Or or XO) or good music, check this out.
