Biography

Born in South Carolina, Dave Barnes spent most of his childhood in Mississippi, where he formed an early attachment to all genres of music. Since moving to Nashville in 2001, Dave has released 12 albums and numerous EPs, including 2021’s Notes From Paris and several holiday albums.

Dave has always primarily written for himself, but in 2011 Blake Shelton released a version of Dave’s song “God Gave Me You” and the musician found himself in demand as a songwriter for others (and earned a Grammy nomination in the process). He’s penned tracks for numerous artists, including Carrie Underwood, Thomas Rhett and Maren Morris, Ingrid Michaelson, Reba McEntire, Tim McGraw, Lady A, Chris Tomlin, and Dan and Shay.

The artist’s self-expression comes through in his other creative endeavors, as well. He hosts two podcasts, “Dave’s Five Hot Takes” and “Dadville,” a collaboration with Jon McLaughlin, which has welcomed everyone from Ted Danson to Matthew McConaughey to discuss the plight of being a dad. “My career has always been a little unconventional, but that’s what keeps it interesting,” Dave notes. “I like trying new things and seeing what else I can create.”
