David Fuit

Growing up in Port Orange, Fl., in a home where Jimmy Buffett records played alongside the sounds of Tom Petty and Elvis Presley, David Fuit’s love of music was inspired. David would watch endlessly as his father played songs on a piano that his grandmother had helped build. At age 13, he had to beg his father for a guitar, as in a house full of teenage kids the last thing needed was the sound of an untamed instrument. David eventually got his way in the form of a black Johnson acoustic, which his father purchased for $85 at a local pawnshop. So began this wonderful friendship.
