Dave Besley’s new album “Hopeless Romantic” is Eclipse’s own “Featured CD of the Month” Click Here to listen or buy this CD at the Eclipse Online Store!

Here are two reviews by two of North East Florida’s most respected performers:

Rob Peck says, “”Troubadour in the first degree”, is what first comes to mind after listening to David Watt Besley’s- Hopeless Romantic recording. Besley delivers a collection of honest & organic songs that can only come from an artist that has spent years honing his craft. His originals are well written and earthy. Delivered with a destinctive voice that is hard to catagorize. The type of voice that I refer to as a “character” voice, when you hear Besley’s voice, you know exactly who is singing. Some voices are pleasing, but generic, not Besley’s. His cover of Cat Steven’s “On the Road To Find Out” is especially well done. One of my favorite qualities about this album over all is that it is not slick & overproduced. All the instruments seem to fit the songs. It’s obvious that the contributing cast of musician added a great deal in the quality of the sound. Especially Kurt Johnstons contribution on; dobro, steel guitar, and keyboards. These contributions add a great deal in making these songs and this recording come alive! Overall, this is a very well done album, well written, and well represented. Dave, when are you ganna take us all fishin’? “

Barry Dunaway says, ”Dave Besley has just out done himself on his new CD “Hopeless Romantic”. Dave’s latest collection of stories-put-to-music are songs heartfelt from a true southern gentleman’s point of view.

His band of cohorts and co-writers put “a hurtin’ ” to these tracks that conjure up some very pleasing imagery–feels just like your favorite flannel shirt with a nice warm plate of comfort food…

Dave continues to be creative and upbeat with a downhome sense of charm… “
