About
Paul David
Drummer, Dreamer, be-er, ...and beer too!
Paul David Stanko creates his music in Plymouth, Minnesota. In addition to performing with various musical groups around the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, he serves as the Instrumental Music Coordinator at Spirit of Hope UMC in Golden Valley, MN.
Paul David's a rock player steeped in the musical theater tradition. His songs tell stories with a focused attention on lyric writing and often have a hidden, deeper layer to what is heard at face value. There is a strong classic rock vibe which comes crashing into the 1980's. His lush vocal backgrounds are reminiscent of The Carpenters meets Yes. His instrumental writing will take you away to new and exciting places with a focus on rhythm and texture along with melody.
Paul David studied music at Coe College in Cedar Rapids, Ia and has worked with such artists at Matt Fink (Dr. Fink from Prince & the Revolution), Patty Peterson and Paul Smoker.
During the pandemic, Paul David has been focused on creating new music in his home studio while helping his church stream their online services. Post Pandemic (are we ever REALLY post pandemic) has found him back in the drum throne for live theater and exploring his spiritual side and offering intuitive readings.
