David Jones, originally from England and now living in New Jersey, USA, has a large repertoire of folk songs from both sides of the Atlantic. He has performed in North America, Britain, Australia and Europe, singing at festivals, concert halls, clubs, maritime museums and colleges, presenting songs from the great days of sail, music hall favourites, traditional ballads and the works of contemporary writers. He sings both a capella and with guitar accompaniment and involves his audience in refrains and choruses ranging from boisterous to sentimental. As well as performing solo, David sang with Heather Wood and Tom Gibney as Poor Old Horse, with Jeff Warner, Jeff Davis and Jerry Epstein as the Bermuda Quadrangle, and with Peter Marston and Charles O´Hegarty as the Starboard List, and he was a member of the Clearwater singing crew.
