Dave Read

Guitarist / Singer / Ukulele / Harmonica

I am a professional musician for hire with over 35 years’ experience. I am extremely dedicated to my work and continually try to engage my audience with a variety of music.

A few of the genres I perform include classic rock, blues, country, Hawaiian, classical, reggae and other popular styles. I can perform for virtually any special event or for any venue. A few my recent gigs include: Trump Golf Club in Bedminster, Radio Shows for WDVRfm and Musikfest in Bethlehem with the band Zaire.

I have obtained a bachelor's degree of music education from The College of New Jersey with classical guitar being my instrument of choice.

Aside from performing, I teach music theory, instrumental studies and vocal studies in a local public school for grades K-12. In addition, I teach private music lessons at Dave Phillips Music and Sound in Philipsburg, NJ.
