Bio:
David Lewis began playing guitar and piano and writing songs at a very young
age, appearing in talent contents and on local TV in Northern Ireland.
In 1967 he joined psychedelic band The Method who became
Andwella's Dream in
1968. In 1969 while still a member of Andwella's Dream,
David demoed some of his
songs for a publisher's demo album "The Songs Of David Lewis". Intended as a
calling card for his song-writing skills, this was a very limited private
pressing, probably only a few hundred copies made, and is now a major rarity.
Andwella's Dream released three albums between 1969-1971.
David also worked on
David Baxter's solo LP during this period.
When Andwella split, David pursued a
solo career.
Two solo albums emerged on Polydor Records, "From Time to Time" in 1976 and
"A Collection of Short Dreams" in 1978. The former is soft melodic AOR, the
latter more uptempo soul. Both are difficult to locate but are bound to be
somewhat of a disappointment to those expecting something in the vein of
Andwella's "Love and Poetry". However the songs are well written and the
playing excellent through.
Dave has also written many songs for other artists including "Happy To Be On An
Island In The Sun", which was a worldwide for legend in his own lunchtime Demis Roussos.
