David Lee

In an ever-changing music world fraught with people trying to be something they are not, David Lee is nothing but himself—a Wichita Falls-born Texas native and a third-generation musician. The songwriter cut his teeth in Texas honky-tonks, where playing a mix of blues and country music is where he first found his own songs.

In 1993, David moved to Nashville to pursue his dream of performing and writing music. Within weeks of arriving in Nashville, he set aside his performance ambitions and focused on honing his craft of songwriting. After a few years as a staff writer, David landed his first cut with Terri Clark’s “This Old Heart.” He went on to write “Now You See Me, Now You Don’t” by Leann Womack; “19 Somethin” by Mark Wills; “Hello World” by Lady A; “Letters From Home” by John Michael Montgomery; “Roll With It” by Easton Corbin; “Lucky Man” by Montgomery Gentry; “Better Rain” by George Strait; “I Wanna Feel Something” and “This Ain’t No Love Song” by Trace Adkins; “Me and My Kind” and “Cowboy Like Me” by Cody Johnson; and the riveting love song “I Need You” for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, among many others. In 2015, the legendary band Alabama cut two of Lee’s songs, “Come Find Me” and their first radio single in over 14 years, “I Wasn’t Through Lovin’ You Yet.”

His first album, “The Wichita Kid,” debuted in early 2016. This non-commercial concept record chronicles David’s life musically and without boundaries. This labor of love showcases his genuine love of the blues, swing and traditional country music. David released two more EP’s “Bringing Hippie Back” and “Songbird.”

In June of 2015, David and his family relocated back to the Texas Hill Country to be closer to friends and family and to share his love for great music as a performing singer-songwriter, away from the ever-changing corporate music industry. He has returned to the basics, back to what he loves, while inspiring and mentoring other songwriters and continuing to sing, write and perform great music.
