Bill Withers is one of the greatest and best-selling singer-songwriters of all time. He scored such classic hits as “Lean On Me,” “Use Me,” “Ain’t No Sunshine,” “Lovely Day” and many more. Neo-soul singer/songwriter Anthony David has, for more than a decade, been considered “the Bill Withers of his generation”. This is due to his warm, resonant baritone and thought-provoking songs, scoring radio hits and successful collaborations. Hello Like Before is the album David’s fans have been waiting for.
