Kingston has a deep-rooted musical community, and few names stand out as much as Dave Barton’s. A self-professed "guitar nerd," Dave’s passion for the instrument began in Grade 4 and has shaped a lifelong career in performance, composition, and education. As co-leader of the Big Phat Horn Band, he brings bold, dynamic energy to the stage while continuing to explore a wide range of musical genres.
Beyond performing, Dave has spent decades teaching and inspiring students, sharing his deep knowledge and love for music. In this episode, we dive into his journey—from the early days of learning guitar to his experiences as a musician, composer, and educator.
Join us as we talk about his influences, his approach to music, and what keeps him inspired after all these years.
