Dave and Katy met in 2001 at a songwriter’s night in Shreveport, Louisiana—their hometown. Both write songs in the Americana/folk rock/country vein. In 2003, the couple moved to New Orleans,  and over the years they've continued to perform at coffeeshops and small venues, collaborating in various bands.

Dave and Katy are members of Friends of Leadbelly, a group of musicians dedicated to promoting the legacy of north Louisiana songwriter Huddie Ledbetter. And over the last few years, Katy has become known for her work in children's music with Confetti Park, and has performed at numerous festivals including French Quarter Fest and Jazz Fest. 

Katy also sings with Steve Howell & the Mighty Men out of the Ark-La-Tex area,  who perform country blues and early jazz standards. This musical friendship was first established in 2002. (Both Dave and Katy sing on their album Good As I Been to You.) These are the musicians behind the new release, I Dream of Water.

In 2018, Dave and Katy took jobs based in Memphis, and are currently living between Memphis and New Orleans. They wrote this album with perspective and reflection on their experiences in their beloved Louisiana.

I Dream of Water is their first official release together.
