Биография

"Americana Pioneer” singer-songwriter/recording artist, poet, and actor David Olney was well-known worldwide for his indelible songs and - prior to his passing at the 30A Songwriter Festival on January 18, 2020 - powerful live performances. With more than 20 albums to his credit, Olney has been described as "Nashville's answer to the Bard." In addition to his own albums, David Olney was a highly respected singer-songwriter with songs covered by Linda Ronstadt, Del McCoury, Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Mary Gauthier, Steve Young, Tim O'Brien, and Townes Van Zandt, among others. Though a folksinger at heart, he incorporated wide-ranging inspirations from honky tonk to rock into his standard repertoire. Born in Rhode Island, Olney moved to Nashville during the early '70s and became a major player in the city's underground folk/country scene. He signed a contract with the folk label Philo several years later. He returned in 1995 with High, Wide and Lonesome, recorded with an impressive cast of roots rock all-stars -- Rick Danko, Garth Hudson, Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Rodney Crowell, and Brian Ahern, among others. Real Lies followed in 1997, and included contributions from John Prine and Garth Hudson, while 1999 brought Through a Glass Darkly. Discover more at https://linktr.ee/davidolney
