David Victor

THE STORY SO FAR

David Victor is a rock vocalist in the classic tradition of singers such as Lou Graham, Robert Plant, David Coverdale and Steve Perry. Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, David has released several independent albums of his original music and has performed live throughout the U.S.

David put together his first original band Velocity in 1996 and recorded and produced Velocity’s debut album IMPACT in 1997 which included veteran drummer Pat Torpey (Mr. Big, Robert Plant, The Knack) on drums. Velocity was a dynamic live act that would go on to play numerous shows throughout the western U.S. from 1996 until 2000. As a result of touring as well as U.S. and Canadian commercial rock radio airplay, Velocity’s IMPACT and the followup album ACTIVATOR went on to sell over 5,500 in the U.S., and over 12,000 units worldwide with deals on Europe’s MTM records and Japan’s AVEX records.

After spending many years recording and touring to support his original music, David has recently been enjoying the freedom of live performance. David is performing with a variety of bands such as Smokin' (Boston tribute band), Streetlight People and Journot (Journey tribute bands), The Exile Social Club (hard rock covers) and VAVOOM! (a live band karaoke ensemble). David has also recently began doing voiceover/vocal work for various TV and web commercials.
