David Ramirez is a singer-songwriter based in Austin, Texas, with six full-length albums and three EPs behind them, alongside numerous collaborations and the supergroup project Glorietta. The music is pop, rock and indie.

The most recent album, All the Not So Gentle Reminders, runs to twelve songs and gives priority to texture, mood and momentum, with wide intros and outros that circle around memory, desire and whether the past deserves trust. Its opener, "Maybe It Was All a Dream", moves from synths and drum machines into organ swells and electric guitars. Ramirez co-produced the record with Christopher Boosahda, and the sessions at Spectra Studios near Austin, engineered by Charlie Kramsky, drew on Barbara Frigiere, Jeff Olson, James Westley Essary and Christopher Boosahda, with friends adding backing vocals.

The Live Room@Caroline Social Club, the venue in Shipley, hosts concerts and shows, and David Ramirez performs there on this visit.
