Dave Fields has music not just in his blood, but also in his genes. Fascinated with music from the very beginning,
he studied piano at a very early age and began learning musical composition, arranging and production on his
father's knee. His father is Sammy Fields, a well known composer-arranger-producer of great American standards as
well a collaborator with the great Hollywood, Broadway and standards writer, Sammy Cahn.
Dave Fields discovered his love for the guitar at age thirteen and was soon playing on sessions with his father, and
writing his first score for a big band at age 16. In high school, Dave had been exposed to some of the top session musicians, composers and arrangers in America.
