- As of a year ago David Mallet was based in Nashville working primarily
- as a songwriter. I've seen his name as a songwriter credit on recent country
- releases by a variety of artists. He still tours but does so very
- infrequently. That's a shame because one if the best "folk" concerts I've
- seen was David Mallett performing solo in a YMCA auditorium in Princeton
- about 8 years ago. Just him and his guitar for about 2 1/2 - 3 hours. He
- had the small but appreciative audience spellbound.
