Hello World!

Mr. David Mallett has been a long time favorite of mine! His classic song Inch By Inch is etched in my childhood memories. He is one of the first musicians I thought of as a storyteller. He can paint a picture with his lyrics. Mr. Mallett is also one of my husband’s favorite artists. We were thrilled to see him perform not once but twice this summer!

After the show in Hadley, Massachusetts, I spoke to Dave and his long time bass player, Mike Burd, about what they have been listening to.

Dave did not mention too many specific artists except for his boys’ band- The Mallett Brothers Band.

In a weird musical rabbit hole twist, I interviewed The Mallett Brothers Band when they played in Nashua, NH a few years ago. I also saw Dave play with the band in Portland, Maine just before Covid was a thing. Kenya Hall performed with them as well, and I really like this remix with her.

Dave also mentioned listening to the radio and his collection of 45s. Someone suggested to me that he went through a Nine Inch Nails phase. I did ask him about that after the show in Jackson, NH and he did not deny it!

Mike Burd said he likes to listen to a variety of music- random plays on the smart speaker (one song leads to another). He also enjoys Vanilla Fudge, Jethro Tull and Miles Davis.

Many thanks to Dave and Mike for taking the time to talk!
