ABOUT

Music composing and rocking live!

Welcome to David Huizenga.com.

Dave considers himself fortunate to have been in the right place at the right time...several times!  First, (and foremost) to have been a teenager in the late 60's. The Beatles, the Stones, and the entire British Invasion became the inspiration to live a life of performing music.

After playing steadily in the thriving Chicago club scene in the 70's and 80's, Dave became friends with Bill Kurtis, Chicago's legendary CBS newsman and documentarian. In the late 80's Dave became Bill's audio director, music composer and field audio sound man...positions he would proudly hold for 20 years. As a soundman he traveled the world over, from the Amazon to the Serengeti to cover environmental and conservation concerns, among many others. Throughout his career with Kurtis Productions, Dave has created all the themes and scores for PBS' The New Explorers and A&E's Cold Case Files among many others. His music can still be heard in the award winning and long running hit series "American Greed" on CNBC.
