Dave

Hi, I'm Dave Ryder. I record music at my studio, Lame Dog Studio. I own the Indie record label Lame Dog Records. I live in Catawissa, MO (in a home I built on 5 acres) with my wonderful wife Torri and my awesome son Muggy. I guess I'm about the luckiest guy in the world, I get to spend most of my days with my son (he's my best friend) and I play and record music with my band at night. I thank God every day to be so blessed :)

Also he dropped a hint in that post that I couldn’t stop think about, “Where is the Tumblr Song, eh?“. So this is New song: Tumblr [Social Creatures]
