David’s Ambrosia classic “How Much I Feel” was featured in it’s entirety (all 5 minutes) in the debut episode of “Bridge & Tunnel“ from actor/director/writer Ed Burns on Epix on January 25th.
Five years ago David created a concert package to feature artist headliner friends as well as a superstar band & top notch singer friends - as he has enjoyed decades of being a music director/ producer of global events as well as a performing artist himself; he simply enjoys the shared experience at this time in his life.
The result has been David Pack’s Legends Live, and there have been some amazing shows, moments, and memories in the last 5 years. Here’s a selection of photos looking back at some highlights!
David will have some exciting news for Ambrosia fans coming soon, stay tuned for more on that.
Meanwhile check out the Ambrosia page here for history and rare photos like the one above!
