Soulful. Emphatic. Dynamic. Melodically accessible.
That's the best way to describe David Pollack, the Portland, OR-based Singer/Songwriter who believes in the power of a good song. Pollack blends the likes of Benjamin Gibbard, Paul Simon and Adam Duritz of The Counting Crows. Originally from New York City in 2017 Pollack relocated across the country to Portland, OR and hit the ground running! During his time in the Pacific Northwest he released five singles and a recent EP "Wallflower" in March of 2025.
Besides from his solo work Pollack fronts the power pop band "DoublePlay" and heads a nonprofit organization named Curbside Serenade that serves as an advocate for Street Musicians.
With a mix of ear candy, conscious lyrics and powerful vocals Pollack moves you and keeps you coming back for more.
