David Gaskin · Songwriter, Musician & Producer
Music for the Journey.
I make music as The Hidden Gold — songs for anyone who's felt lost, wrestled with self-doubt, or searched for a truer version of themselves. They explore the space between dark and light, holding on and letting go, and learning to trust life along the way.
Drawing from alternative rock, pop, classic contemporary — or wherever a song takes me — I love memorable hooks, edgy guitars, and arrangements that lead listeners somewhere unexpected.
The Long Road Back to Music
I fell in love with music when I was 15. Somewhere along the way, the boy who wanted to be heard became the man who was afraid to be seen.
For years, I kept writing songs but struggled to put myself out there. As I approached 40, I realized the fear of never really giving music a shot had become greater than the fear of trying.
So I started again. I'm still finding my way, and the music is part of that journey.

Making Music Together
Alongside my own music, I help other musicians and songwriters develop their ideas — through recording, production, lessons, mixing, and thoughtful feedback. Whether you're starting a song or finishing a record, I'd love to help you move it forward.
