I am sad to report that David Waters passed away last night. David was the long-time guitarist for Billy Mata and The Texas Tradition, as well as April and Jason Hall. He was a great player, a wonderful guy with a terrific sense of humor, and a steel player’s best friend. You will be missed by so many David. R.I.P. _________________ Tommy Detamore

OH I'm so sorry to hear this. Me and David have picked the stage together years ago....he was always such an inspiration to me musically. What a treasure he was here and what a blessing of a Spirit where he is now.
RIP David.

In the time I spent playing in Billy Mata’s band I was lucky to get to know David very well. He had a knack for making me laugh, especially when I really needed to. I learned so much about music from David, his knowledge of chords, jazz standards, Western swing licks, etc. had a profound effect on my own musicianship, and he was always more than happy to share his knowledge. He was truly one of a kind, and he will be sorely missed. |

David, there is so much that can be said about him and yet you wouldn't touch the essence of the man. Kind gentleman, super guitar player, never met a stranger, fast to make friends, ect....
David will be missed by many.
Love you brother, God's speed. _________________ Zum D10 |
