Belgium Philips signed with Black and Tan Records in Holland and released his

Philips is known for his D.I.Y approach in the studio,
writing, recording and producing all his albums himself as well as playing all
instruments and tracking all vocals on his last 3 records to date. The Rooftop
Recordings (2011) was recorded in his rooftop apartment in Barcelona, Spain
while December Wine (The 4 Track Tapes) (2013) is a selection of demos recorded
using a Tascam 4 track cassette machine. His most recent album “If I Had Wings”

and live shows throughout Europe. The record is Philips' most adventurous to
date, exploring his musical past as a jazz guitar player and also electronic music
producer. He also did the artwork for the release using paintings, drawings and
sketches made whilst on tour and at home throughout 2014. David Philips has
toured Europe extensively over the past 5 years and continues to showcase his
world class guitar playing and carefully crafted songs and stories to a growing
