He started Floating Notes when a song he wrote for some young friends was picked up by a studio and then a record company. This took him by surprise and while getting a new version recorded he met Tim Bloomer and Liam Gaugan. They taught him a lot about music and they really "hit it off".
Since then he has had requests for original songs from a variety of organisations and they are being kept busy.
Dave had a strange career! His first job was training dolphins and his last one was running his own mail order company. He sold this and planned to retire and go fishing, but the success of his first song changed everything.
This website contains a small selection of his music. He will deal with you personally and hopes to create what you are looking for.
Liam has been working professionally in the Music and Audio worlds for over 12 years now since graduating from a B.Mus in Jazz, Pop and Commercial Music. Teaching, performing, recording, and generally solving problems for a wide variety of clients from global broadcasters to local musicians and companies.
His abilities have led him to do some very interesting work, covering a huge range of things including recording albums with bands big and small, composing for new media, musical directing for theatre shows, audio post-production for international broadcast, building and operating live streaming stations for music and video, voiceovers for companies all over the world, and delivering masterclasses about music production here in the UK and abroad.
Liam has a real passion for the Bass Guitar, Technology in general, and collaborating with hard-working musicians to create world-class results on stage, or off stage in the studio. He has also helped many aspiring musicians reach their own goals including admission to the best undergraduate courses in the country.

Tim Bloomer is a professional guitar player from Newcastle Upon Tyne. Since graduating from his B Mus(hons) degree in Jazz and Commercial Music in 2013 he has worked as a full-time performing and recording musician – becoming fluent in many styles of modern music, from jazz to country, rock and everything in between – and has toured the UK and Europe extensively.
2018 proved to be a busy and exciting year for Tim, with a huge amount of touring and several recording projects. Some highlights include playing lead guitar and lapsteel on the UK/European theatre tour of You’ve Got a Friend: The Music of James Taylor and Carole King and Tapestry, as well as for Cinderella at The Tyne Theatre & Opera House. He was also thrilled to play guitar for The Simon & Garfunkel Story during two sell out residencies in Dublin and London’s West End.
2019 led to more awesome shows and touring, including a continuation of The Simon & Garfunkel Story in Europe as well as the UK, and an extensive UK tour of Paul Simon’s Graceland Live, in which Tim backed American musician and Youtuber Josh Turner Guitar alongside a full live band and the South African Cultural Gospel Choir. Tim also played lead guitar for Rob Heron & The Tea Pad Orchestra for the majority of their 2019 album tour dates in the UK and Europe, and for a month-long run of Aladdin at The Tyne Theatre & Opera House. As well as performing live Tim was regularly in the studio in 2019, playing both guitar and lapsteel on a vast number of recording sessions for a variety of British and American artists. He was also delighted to be asked to become an Alvarez Allstar in 2019, and will subsequently be working with Alvarez Guitars to produce videos for their website and social media pages, as well as playing their acoustic guitars exclusively, both live and in the studio.
