Dave Green has been around - and it shows. At only 22, this singer/songwriter from the North-West of England has not only a creative maturity well beyond his years, but strength of voice that transcends both era and classification. At ages 14, Dave, Anthony and Marc cut a CD under the name ‘The People’ and subsequently signed on with Canadian music manager Daniel Brookes. By 17, Dave was invited to sign with another of 'Brookes' bands - 'Roller', in which he undertook two tours of the United States and Canada opening for 54-40 and Danny Michel. In this time, both Anthony and Marc went their separate directions to focus on their own styles of music and to further progress their talent. In 2004 Dave undertook 6 months of writing and recording in Canada with such industry notables as Rich Beddoe (Finger Eleven), Vincent Sciara and Ken Corke (Skye Sweetnam). Since having successfully opened support shows with the likes of 'The Damned', 'We Start Fires', 'The Futureheads' and 'Ali Love', Dave has been in the studio with producer John Kettle (Marble Index, Moco), where he focused on developing a new sound and worked on and completed his full-length C.D. In October, 2007, Dave invited back the talents of Hogan and Lavin, and successfully auditioned Barry Robinson as bassist to complete the line-up of The Filthy Souls. In Vancouver Dave recently shot two videos for the singles 'Shootin Stars' and 'The Boys Will Be Out for a Fight'. The Filthy Souls music has already been heard at numerous festivals, including recent success of 'In The City', as well as on the Fox Television series 'Vanished' and Manchester’s 'Channel M'. The band are planning a trip to Los Angeles in July 2008 to introduce their music to the US market. However, the trips main focal aim is to create interest from US record labels. www.myspace.com/thefilthysoulsmusic
