Few white boys from the Connecticut suburbs can claim as colorful a career as David Hull.
David was plucked from home and hearth at the ripe age of 17 to tour the United States with The Buddy Miles Orchestra soon after Jimi Hendrix dumped Buddy and went back to playing with the white Englishmen who helped make him famous.
Buddy could see that you needed white people in your band to get the good gigs. So though everyone in the 11 piece orchestra could play bass in his sleep, he hired David and his childhood buddy, Charlie Karp on guitar.
David and Charlie learned how to play pretty quick in the bus with the former felon and performed on four Buddy Miles albums, including the million selling “Them Changes” and the legendary “Buddy Miles Band Live.” They also learned that fees for services rendered by touring musicians of the late 60s and 70s were often paid in currencies other than cash, for which they developed powerful appetites.
The Dark Age of Substance Abuse descended on the Nation during the 80s, but David survived unblemished and his Bass Prowess developed. His talents were sought by many and he went on to tour and record with a wide range of artists, like The Joe Perry Project, Ted Nugent, David Bowie, Pete Droge, Joe Cocker, Reeves Gabrels, etc. He’s also worked a lot with noted producers like Brendan O’Brien, Dave Stewart and Jack Douglas.
Back in Boston when not touring David found he was most happy in the studio, creating all kinds of music for all kinds of situations. The Exploding View Studio was born. He is now working on films, commercials and songs by both bands and solo performers that are popping up all over the world.
