David Wimble is a Singer/Songwriter from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Growing up, his early musical influences were The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Doors, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan and Jim Carroll.
Since his early days in grade school, David has had a passion for writing fiction and poetry. Looking back, he recalls that it was the "only time that the light came on. The rest of the time, I was in the dark!"
David continued to write through his teens and early twenties - becoming more of a poet than a songwriter. He says that "it's very important that when someone reads my lyrics that I'm giving their mind something to munch on. To me, having lyrics that stand on their own is essential."
His band, Big Meteor, put out their first CD in 2000. The CD, titled "Wild River," received rave reviews from around the world. "Wild River" features a wide blend of music ranging from Acoustic Rock to Blues to Old Time Country. To date, songs from the "Wild River" CD have been used in 19 televisions shows and one made-for-tv movie.
Even with the success of "Wild River," David has temporarily put his music career aside. He currently devotes all of his time to publishing The Indie Bible - an annual resource for independent recording artists - http://www.indiebible.com
