David Gahan already joined the band as the singer, when they were still calling themselves ‘Composition of Sound’ and did minor
performances in clubs and bars.
Dave plays the more emotional, wilder part within the band, and it didn´t do him good all the time.
In the 90´s, he drove himself down deeply into the drug scene, which almost had him killed in 1996.
After a successful recovery he was back for good with new creativity.
He also started to write own songs and released his first solo album called ‘Paper Monsters’ in 2003.
Some of his lyrics are included at their latest album ‘Playing the Angel’.
His second solo album called ‘Hourglass’ was released October 2007 and already has a great position in the charts.
Dave is quite popular for his energetic performances on stage during tours. He coniders New York his home now.
