About David Rauh

After performing with both instrumental and vocal groups throughout his years in the Westport school system, he eventually found his way to University of south Florida where he was lucky to meet and study with Professor Robert McCormick and toured with both the USF #1 Jazz and Wind Esembles. While still living in Florida, Dave performed nightly with various fusion, rock and experimental jazz groups in the greater Tampa Bay area, opening for some well known acts such as saxophonist Phil Woods, and vocalists Judy Collins and Angela Bofill.

For the last 14 years, Dave has been Playing drums and singing with the popular Fairfield county based Band "Voodoo Carnival" who have performed at numerous venues and benefits in the area. For the last 20 years or so he has been obsessed with developing his own technique on cajon and now performs on that instrument regularly with a growing consortium of "acoustically bent" songwriters and musicians. During the pandemic, Dave hosted a number of pop-up outdoor showcase events which included appearances by many of those same musicians.
