MEET DAVE

You know Dave, right? Because you should totally know Dave.

The British breakout just won Album of the Year at the BRIT Awards for his set Psychodrama (a trophy he was handed by presenters Billie Eilish and FINNEAS). The release, out via the artist's indie imprint Neighbourhood Records and distribbed in the U.K. by UMG, flew back up to #2 on the U.K. chart after his big BRITs look.

Dave performed "Black" on the show, and its anguished assessment of racism and general injustice in Blighty has been a catalyst for much conversation, as evidenced by its having catapulted to #1 trending topic in the U.K. (and 750k+ views).

The artist will be in front of U.S. audiences all summer, with appearances scheduled at Coachella, Governors Ball and Pitchfork, with more TBA. Dave has partnered with Geffen Records for U.S. releases.
