Early on in his career as a multi-faceted bass player and producer, David Filice adopted a unique philosophy: “Even if I don’t know how to play a certain style, if someone asked me to work with them, I would say yes and figure out how to play it later.” His powerful work ethic, combined with this dynamic mindset of curiosity, adaptability and openness to new musical vistas, has led to an extraordinary career touring and performing with multiple platinum and Grammy winning artists; composing music for film and TV, writing and producing for other artists; and playing key creative roles in several dynamic personal recording projects. David’s most notable high-profile associations have been with American Idol alum David Archuleta, famed Poison and Mr. Big guitarist Richie Kotzen and Darryl McDaniels, aka DMC from hip-hop legends Run-DMC. The arena tour he did with Archuleta in 2009 featured co-headliner Demi Lovato, and he toured with Kotzen throughout the U.S., South America and Europe. He has kept the groove going behind McDaniels, both in the U.S. and internationally, since 2012. David has also toured with Bret Michaels and The Rembrandts, in addition to doing gigs with Bono and the Edge (on an “American Idol” season finale), Party Crashers, Trace Adkins, Robbie Williams, Alex Band from The Calling, American Idol winner Kris Allen, Sophie B. Hawkins, The Motels and Jennifer Paige. Before he became a first call touring bassist, David developed an impressive, diverse resume as a film and television composer, creating music for films on Showtime as well as shows on E!, MTV, VH1, Fox, ABC, Disney Channel, A&E, Bravo, Discovery, HBO and Cinemax. “Bad Cat,” a song he co wrote and produced for internationally renowned Japanese artist Yoko Yazawa, hit the Billboard charts.
