David Higgins - Solo

David Higgins - Solo Live at Cafe Wha? | Friday, Oct 17th | 6:30PM Show; 5:30PM Doors

Music can open our hearts and help us feel more connected to others, to ourselves, and to the world around us. South Carolina’s David Higgins knew he wanted to help and connect with other people in his life, an urge that drove him to enroll in medical school. While studying biology, Higgins cut his teeth playing well-loved covers in bars in SC, pulling his musical inspiration from some of his personal favorites such as The Killers, David Gray, and Muse. After graduating, Charleston, SC became his new home where he planned to attend medical school but a life in music became impossible to abandon. Captivating an audience always came easy, and as his touring base grew, so did Higgins’ desire to connect with his listeners through his own original music.

David Higgins writes about intimately relatable coupling themes of life, love and loss. His debut single “Say It Out Loud” is a piano-driven, finger-snapping, upbeat tune about finding one’s own voice in a relationship. “‘Say It Out Loud’ is about wanting to be honest in a relationship but still wanting to play your cards right, and not be too forthright”, says Higgins. Next up is the pulsing anthem entitled “Kings & Queens”, another relationship song with a decidedly optimistic bent. With more music planned for release in 2020 and 2021, Higgins’ musical career began as a love for performance art but has morphed into a love for connecting to friends and fans through music, and creating special moments for his audience and himself.

Higgins’ songs were written slowly, deliberately, purposefully and he says “for the first time I’m truly proud of everything I’m releasing”. As for his future, Higgins looks forward to reconnecting with his audience, playing more live shows and to, hopefully, touring internationally. Determined to continue his creative process through the 2020 COVID-19 epidemic, Higgins is using his creative platform and the internet to raise funds for healthcare professionals via live social media performances.
