About David E. Maxwell
I have been involved in music for over 40 years. I believe that God's gift to us is life, and what we do with our life is our gift back to Him. I was born in Philadelphia, PA. the oldest of seven children, 3-boys and 4-girls. At the early age of five I began to show interest in music.. At age 9, I was given a guitar by an older cousin who taught me how to play an old country honky tonk riff. Thus the torch was lit, and the creative Juices began to flow. I was Introduced to church at an early age and loved to sing even though some thought that I should stick to playing instruments instead.
At age 11, I learned to play many songs by ear, which landed me in my first neighborhood band. I attended Stoddard Fleisher Junior High School where I also learned to play the clarinet and alto saxophone. Not knowing how to read sheet music, I would learn by ear and memorize all the songs. Often times I would play the piano during school assembly. As time went on I joined several other bands that traveled and played on the local circuit. I've been a member of several groups such as, The Persuasions, The North Wall Band, The Temporarily Unknown Band, Sure Fire, The Break Of Dawn, Positive Vibes, The Back In Action Band, and The Friends Group, just to name a few.
Growing up in the inner city, trouble was always at arms length. While deal
