Dave Schools (Widespread Panic)

Welcome to Roadcase!!  Dave Schools is the critically acclaimed bass player and founding member of Widespread Panic, and is also accomplished producer.  His latest producing effort is a heartfelt album, "Highway Butterfly: The Songs of Neal Casal," which features over three dozen major artists contributing songs to honor the late member of Circles Around the Sun, who sadly took his own life in 2019. Dave has also played in a number of different bands including Stockholm Syndrome, Gov't Mule, J Mascis & The Fog, and Hard Working Americans, which Dave also produced.  Dave has also most recently worked with Andy Frasco, producing Andy's latest album.  Personally, Dave is a beacon of light, love and compassion, and his deep love of music and humankind comes across in everything he does. While he has struggled with addiction in the past, he is now a staunch advocate of mental health and strives to help others live better lives. Widespread Panic also support those in need with their own non-profit organization, Tunes for Tots, which helps bring musical instruments and gear to economically-challenged schools, among other worthy endeavors. Dave is truly a one-of-a-kind human whom we're elated to have on our show!!  So come on aboard the Roadcase bus for this very special episode with the one and only Dave Schools.  It's gonna be a great ride!!For more information: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comContact: [email protected] music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer
