David's mid-'80s to mid-'90s band The Junk Monkeys was the best straight forward rock and roll band of that time period that you might have missed. No metal overtones, no industrial edge, no rap hybrids. Just straight up rock and roll ala The Rolling Stones, The Replacements and Cheap Trick with that gritty working class Detroit city attitude added in. The band toured relentlessly but David decided to leave the music business on a high note not too long after touring for the 'Bliss' record. He left with the band's integrity intact before there was even a whiff of succumbing to the pressures of the commercial machine. 'MusicHound's Rock: The Essential Album Guide' called 1992's 'Bliss,' "One of the best guitar-pop releases in a decade rife with great ones." At the turn of the century David assisted a fellow Junk Monkey alum in the studio project SWIG, but other than that he has laid dormant (musically speaking) until he got the itch again in 2014. He rounded up a supergroup for his new band, David Bierman Overdrive. A bunch of seasoned veteran Detroit friends: Kevin Perri (Junk Monkeys, Dives, Brian McCarty Band, etc), Dave Feeny (Hysteric Narcotics, Orange Roughies, Blanche, American Mars, Loretta Lynn, etc), Stephen Palmer (Fletcher Pratt, Back in Spades, The High Strung, etc) and Jim Faulkner (The Happy Accidents, Blueflowers, The Beggars, etc). He has maintained the same great lineup since the band's inception. David Bierman Overdrive is a band effort and not just a bunch of session guys. David brings the songs and the guys put their touches on them to round them out.
