After four albums, and countless shows with his band The Collection, David Wimbish returns to his origins with the onset of his new incarnation as a solo artist, David Wimbish & The Collection. The singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist’s first demonstration of this new direction will be his self-titled LP (Nettwerk), featuring new music and alternate versions of fan favorite tracks from previous albums.  “When my career began, the name of the project was David Wimbish & The Collection,” he says, “but over the following years, what was originally a solo project became a band. The relationships were close, both emotionally and musically, and they remain that way. But after 10 years of playing as a band, life decided it was time for that chapter to end. I’ve loved making and performing music with my friends. There have been so many beautiful moments we’ve shared, and I am incredibly grateful to my bandmates, and our fans, for all of it. But there’s a new life to this next chapter. I’m getting back to a more organic sonic footprint that’s more focused on serving the song. I returned to writing in a way that I hadn’t in a long time and stepping into a very honest space.” In pursuing this return to his roots, Wimbish found the perfect cohort to bring this new vision to life in producer Marshall Altman [Matt Nathanson, Trevor Hall]. For the first time in his recording career David cut songs entirely live in the studio, which birthed raw, emotion-driven performances that elevated the songs to match the depth of their subject matter.
