David Celia with Zuffalo - October 25th
David Celia with Zuffalo
This live music event is not to be missed. The brewery floor at Parsons will travel back through time via a psychedelic sensory experience, back 50yrs when Floyd's epic Wish You Were Here album was released.
Reserve your Countylicious pre-dinner show early and relish in the incredible talent of Dave Celia with Zuffalo as they play a set of their music and then the entire Wish You Were Here album.
David has been singing and playing the music of Pink Floyd since he was a young teen. David Gilmour’s sweet melodic sense and gentle touch have hugely influenced him in his style. His deep love of Roger Waters’ lyrics and Syd Barrett’s overall influence on this band will make this show a must see/hear for passionate fans.
David is predominately his own songsmith and performer with 4 of his own albums released and another in the works. His music can be described as Folk Rock wrapped up in a Beatle-esque pop package. He’s off touring the world twice a year and thrives on performing in front of music loving audiences with his “feel good but think” lyrics and spontaneous off-the-cuff improvisation. David's music has consistently appeared on the CBC, BBC and WNYC in New York. Even the legendary Gordon Lightfoot is a fan. David has also performed live on BBC2’s highly regarded Bob Harris national radio show several times.
"One of Toronto's best guitar players” - Tom Power, CBC
“I like the sentiment in your lyrics” - Gordon Lightfoot
“This Is Superb. A Gem” -Bob Harris. BBC Radio 2
He’s been collaborating with Zuffalo’s Kim Manning (keys/vocals) and Michael Vukovich (bass/vocals) by having them back his original music (and him on their shows). David recently took them on tour for his UK/Europe dates, including a performance at the legendary Glastonbury Festival. They’ve recently covered “Dark Side of the Moon” on its 50th anniversary and more recently “Animals” with great success. Some people have said that it’s the closest thing to imagining how Pink Floyd would have done it back in the day. Eric Vanier will be on drums and sound effects + guest Saxophonist.
David's reputation as a guitarist has led him to play with many local Canadian artists in their bands, including legendary Alt-Country/folk singers Ian & Sylvia Tyson and acts diverse as Icelandic alt/pop star Emiliana Torrini. He's supported shows for Elvis Costello, Badly Drawn Boy, Shawn Colvin, Fairport Convention, Ron Sexsmith, Martha Wainwright + more. He’s also had the pleasure of meeting and playing music with the late great Pete Seeger.
Earlier this year, he released a new single “Wake Up Again” and went on to tour in Europe/UK, including Glastonbury once again.
