David Muse (born July 1949, Rome, Georgia) is an American singer, songwriter, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist. He has been a member of several bands including Firefall, The Marshall Tucker Band
Firefall (1975–1981, 1994-1995, 2000–2003, 2011–present)
David joined Firefall in 1975 at the invitation of old friend Rick Roberts.The band had recently signed a deal with Atlantic Records and was preparing to record their debut, self-titled album Firefall. Since David was not an original signatory to the deal with Atlantic Records, the label would not allow his picture to be on the album and insisted that he be listed as an additional musician. The band always considered him an original member and was credited as such on their second album Luna Sea, released in 1977. From 1975–1981 the band released five albums and produced hits such as You Are The Woman, Goodbye, I Love You, Strange Way, Just Remember I Love You and Cinderella. During this time, Firefall toured the world and shared stages with Fleetwood Mac, The Doobie Brothers, The Band, The Beach Boys and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Unrest and tension among band members lead to the breakup of the original band in 1981.
David performed with the band occasionally over the years, returning as a full-time band member in 2011. Original bassist Mark Andes returned to the band at this same time.
The Marshall Tucker Band (1996–2000, 2003–2008)
