David La: Rotten in Denmark

Posted on February 27, 2008 Under Music

I am not sure how I feel about male lead singers that sound like whiney complainers, but this sort of “new” rock has a firm foothold on the airwaves and I better learn to like it. And I have. Having been involved in music at an early age, David La helped form the five piece, Ambershades. Despite considerable initial success, the group soon parted ways. Now armed with a clear vision of where to carry his music, La’s debut EP Rotten in Denmark delivers amazing vocals, an upbeat tempo, and guitar and piano-lined tracks. A talented songwriter, La is additionally blessed with the ability to deliver powerful live performances. You can hear this for yourself, on track 4 of the EP, Don’t Let Me Down. You’ll love it if you like The Beatles, Elvis Costello, Franz Ferdinand, and in particular, The Killers and is released April 15.
