ABOUT ABOUT

With the intuitive sense and emotional depth of a filmmaker, California native David Luning looks deeply into the human condition in his music, exploring its shadowy recesses and its brilliantly lit corners.

He spent a few years studying film scoring at the Berklee College of Music, then John Prine’s music changed his life. “Some friends of mine shared John’s music with me… And it was like discovering a whole other way to approach music. It made me realize just how powerful the right lyric can be. The right lyric can create a thousand images and stories in your head and therefore can hit pretty hard emotionally.”

In addition to his successes as a songwriter, Luning’s exciting and naturally captivating performances have landed him on stages with artists like the Tedeschi Trucks Band (receiving standing ovations), John Hiatt, Leon Russell, Band of Heathens, Dustbowl Revival, Aubrie Sellers, Elvin Bishop, and Rodney Crowell, among many others. And he’s been enthusiastically received at music events around the globe, such as Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, Bottlerock Napa, Kate Wolf, Black Swamp Arts, and Ramblin’ Roots in the Netherlands.
