One of my favorite places to hang in Zanesville, O-H-I-O. Jim Watson makes it an enjoyable environment for all ages. Great food and friends. Love supplying the country tunes on the nights I am asked to play.

Winterfest… Benny the Bass!
It’s a freakin’ blast kicking the BUCKEYE LAKE WINTERFEST festivities off at The Boatyard at 7:30am. Seem too early to drink, dance and belly laugh? It’s how we make it through the cold months here on the lake. Benny took the bait and my pontoon will be back out before you know it.
Thanks BoatYard and Lake Time Supply for inviting and outfitting me. I will be back next year; same time slot!
David Spires at The Barn 12/22/23 @ 7pm
I am back at The Barn, in Zanesville, Ohio, to sing you some of my favorite Country Music! Solo-with my Acoustic Guitar. Christmas tunes (some!) will be in store, to get us all ready for the big day! Enjoy the tunes, a cold beverage, and some good food! If I am lucky maybe Charlie Spires will show up to put some chicken tenders on my tab and sing a few Christmas carols with me!
Get Those Ugly Sweaters Ready!
Playing Pedal Steel with Silverado Tonight
Back with Bim Strawser and Silverado tonight at The Hunter Street Saloon. Spent the afternoon learning more about the New Fender Tone Master Pro. Reinventing the wheel is fun! Having an afternoon for personal growth is a luxury that doesn’t happen often enough. We’ll hear what it’s like with my pedal steel tonight. I have a feeling I am going to enjoy the hell out of making some music!
Ohio Valley Opry – 11/18/23 Next Show
Putting in the work! 27 new songs to bring together, to perform once. These people are special, and I am having so much fun doing the work and being part of it!
Sam Clark’s “Willie Nelson- A Tribute to the Life and Songs of a Living Legend”, brings a night of country hits from the red-headed stranger to the stage of the Ohio Valley Opry and the Twin City Opera House in McConnelsville.
Backed by the OVO staff band whose reputation for attention to detail is wide-spread, the arrangements are consistently faithful to the original hits. You’ll hear a gospel-inspired tinkling piano, a lonesome acoustic, a meandering steel guitar, and even a hint of the haunting harmonica that make Nelson’s songs so recognizable. Add in Clark’s exacting vocals, and you’ll swear Willie Nelson is in the house!
You’ll hear hit songs from “Blue Eyes Crying In the Rain” to “City of New Orleans” and everything in between at the November 18th Ohio Valley Opry Show.
In addition, you’ll also hear songs from David Clark, Matt Coleman, Dylan Mayle, Britney Reeves, The Clarks, Jada Riley, Mike Morrison and Ellie Gault.
The OVO Staff band will feature Marvin Clark on lead guitar; Gary Sigler on the drums; Andrew Ruggles on the acoustic guitar; David Spires on the steel; and Bryant Sigler on the bass. Also fiddle great Ray Cossin from Mt. Alto will be back with the band for the November show.
The show starts at 6pm, with doors opening at 5pm. Purchase tickets online at www.OhioValleyOpry.com, by calling the box office at 740.525.9218, or at the door while they last.
