Dave Stamey has been a cowboy, a mule packer, a dude wrangler, and is now one of the most popular Western entertainers working today.
In the midst of his fast-paced touring and performing schedule, Dave wrote and produced his 12th CD called Good Dog. His compositions on this new release are what you come to expect from Dave – witty, heart-wrenching, tender and sophisticated. His very latest projects include 2 books. The First Twenty-Five Years, Songs and Stories was released in August 2018. With over 60 Dave Stamey originals and their backstories, one really begins to understand the depth of this songwriter and his creative process.
