Just Dave Band
(aka JD Bernal Band) is a traveling country-rock-roots band from Los Angeles. Led by
Dave “JD” Bernal, the band’s loud, raw, and unrelenting show gives it the edge country needs, while
showing loving respect to the outlaw greats that shaped it!
JD has played harmonica on the stages of American Idol and 30 Seconds to Fame. His harmonica is also
currently featured on the Discovery Channel series, “Sons of Guns”, as well as on plenty of regional and
national albums.
Growing up in the rural Northern California town of Grass Valley, Dave experienced country living, with a
little hippie community attitude mixed in.
The music blends a high-energy rhythm attack with laid-back, warm vocals, and frenzied harmonica/guitar
soloing to accompany. The combination of Dave’s “bigger-than-his-body” voice, with a rock edged band,
bring a new twist to the world of the classic country troubadour sound.
Dave is happy to call California his home, which serves as a backdrop for many of his original songs.
Many are a tribute to the “Laurel Canyon sound” made famous by singers and songwriters of the 1960s.
Just Dave Band is currently performing all throughout Los Angeles, San Diego and the Central Coast at
concert series.
