David Touchton was born while his mother was serving time in Huntsville State Penitentiary in Texas. Raised by his grandfather, Peck Touchton, who was a honky-tonker in his younger years, and his loving grandmother Jeannine, David grew up with the honesty and simplicity of old-school country music and blues. Throughout his life, David's love of music grew to include nearly every genre and his style is heavily influenced by greats such as Waylon Jennings, Merle Haggard, Steve Earle, Ray Wylie Hubbard, George Jones, along with blues men such as Muddy Waters, Son House, Howlin' Wolf and many others. David lives in Austin, Texas and plays in and around town most days of the week, either solo, or accompanied by his Nowhere Band.
