Listen & Watch

When you hire David, you’re not just booking a guitarist — you’re creating an experience.

• a musician who understands both performance and audience

If you’re interested in working together, reach out with a few details about your event:

  • "Just letting you know how much I truly loved working with you. That “tag- team formula” of going through the tunes with Jorma and yourself is a fabulous learning technique and I really appreciated it. You are a very good instructor and a nice man. Years ago, I wrote for Acoustic Guitar Magazine and recently sent them a query letter suggesting that I do a detailed story on how well your method worked. Hopefully, they will have me write it up and then we can share it with everybody."

  • "Last weekend was a blast. Did a guitar workshop taught by Jorma and David Wolff... For me, this certainly was a dream come true. Even a Noreaster couldn't dampen the mood."

    — John Sprang

  • "I have to tell you how much you have contributed to my, finally, being able to make progress in guitar playing. This is something I've wanted and has been a part of me my whole life. A better instructor would be very hard to find!"
