One of my favorite things about show business, besides all the free drink tickets and the sex, is the opportunity to collaborate with artists whose work I absolutely love, which is why I was thrilled to wing it on down to Atlanta recently to play a few songs with my dear friend Puddles Pity Party. Here’s a clip of us doing “Pursuit of Happiness” by fellow Cleveland native Kid Cudi. I probably shouldn’t be admitting this, but, while I was already familiar with Kid Cudi, I had never heard his version of the song before we recorded this. I have since listened and can confirm that it is awesome. Also, some folks have asked me about what gear I used for this song. My guitar is my awesome, frost blueDunable Asteroid. And I used my EartherQuaker Devices Dispatch Master pedal to get the cool reverb and delay sound. I don’t remember what amp I used but it was old, cool, and loud. Enjoy and tell the others!
Love,
Dave Hill

Denver folks! I’m coming to your town tomorrow (Sept. 16! I just checked!) through Saturday to perform in your fair city for the first time ever as part of the excellent High Plains Comedy Festival. I am doing three shows and I want you to come to all of them and bring fifty friends or something. The info is here. Afterwards, we can get snacks or something. I don’t know- I’m living minute to minute!!!
Love,
Dave Hill

Hi. It’s Dave again. I just wanted to let you know that Drunk Bus, a movie I am totally in, is out now in select theaters and on-demand (you know, like Amazon Prime and such). I wear a bathrobe, smoke pot, and even attempt to cook pizza bagels at one point in this movie and I really think you’ll like it a lot. It stars Charlie Tahan from the hit TV show Ozark and Pineapple Tangaroa, who are both delightful. The Boston Herald gave the movie a great review and even said my character Devo Ted deserves his own movie. I totally agree! Go watch Drunk Bus now or I’ll flip out!
Thank you so much,
Dave Hill

Hi. It’s Dave again. I just wanted to let you know that I have a guest starring role in an episode of the hilarious new Peacock series Girls5Eva created by the genius Meredith Scardino and starring the hilarious Sara Bareilles, Renèe Elise Goldsberry, Busy Philipps, and Paula Pell. I won’t tell you what episode so it’s totes a surprise when you see me. Okay, it’s episode 7 but make sure to watch every episode before that one or you’ll be totally lost and also the show is excellent and you’ll want to watch every episode 47 times anyway. Okay, now get out there and live, dammit!
Your man,
Dave Hill

Hi. It’s Dave again. And, as if this past year or so hasn’t been crazy enough, I am writing today to tell you that I am launching a tiny new clothing line called Bunny, named after my mother, with my friend and fashion industry person Korri Santillan. We have just launched our debut Bunny collection of three women’s dresses*, each with prints designed by me, Dave. You can see them and even buy them here! Please go have a look and sign up for our mailing list while you’re in the neighborhood so you can see what we cook up next. Our website on the Internet is at www.thebunnyshops.com.
We also made a commercial. Well, I shot it on my phone, but I still maintain I might be the best director since Godard. You can watch it below.
Oh, and in case you are worried this whole thing might distract me from show business dominance**, fear not- I am just doing this to drive Gwyneth Paltrow slowly insane.
Yours in fashion,
Dave Hill
*We also have socks. And lots more coming very soon (HINT: Robes! You heard me!)!
**Speaking of which, I have a guest starring role in the excellent new series Girls5Eva, debuting TODAY NBC’s new streaming service Peacock. And I play a Devo-obsessed weed dealer in the excellent new movie Drunk Bus starring Charlie Tahan from Ozark and Will Forte, in theaters and video-on-demand May 21. Take that, Gwyneth!

Hi. It’s Dave. From before. As many of you are well aware, I am the world’s foremost guitar pedal authority. Recently, I took the new Earthquaker Devices Astral Destiny pedal for a test drive. You can watch my findings above and then go buy one for yourself whether you play guitar or not.
Your man,
Dave Hill

Hi. It’s Dave. From before. I wanted to tell you that due to a demand that I made up entirely in my head but has since proven to be an actual demand from humans other than myself, I have made entrance to my global street gang the Dangerous Snakes Who Hate Bullshit possible once more via the simple act of getting your own DSWHB shirt designed by me in my spare time away from schooling mofos and righting wrongs in general. Wearing the shirt instantly makes you the head of your local DSWHB chapter and invites you into a life of danger previously unfathomable. Also, the shirt is purple, which looks great on everybody basically. Get yours now by going here and saying goodbye to life as you’ve ever known it. Buy a shirt for a friend too so you can roll deep and give the finger to people at intersections for no apparent reason and stuff.
Your man,
Dave Hill

I wrote something about one of all-time favorite everythings Barry White for my buddies at Earthquaker Devices. You can read the whole thing here. I hope you enjoy it so much.
Practice what you preach,

Hi. It’s Dave again. Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. The Internet- she is elusive. Anyway, recently my alter ego Lance the King of Black Metal was featured on Guitar World as part of their Sick Riffs series. As you can imagine, it’s pretty sick. And while, sure, I have always dreamed of being featured on Guitar World and feel slightly jealous that Lance beat me to it, I’m still really proud of that guy. Watch the whole thing above or go here to see Lance school mofos on how to play the riff to Witch Taint’s hit song “Death to Death Metal”!
Stay street,

Attention Gorgeous People:
Hello. This is your man Dave Hill. I hope this note finds you safe and healthy and wearing outfits that don’t get caught up in the visuals while eating and drinking like you just got out of prison. I just wanted to pop out of my bunker very quickly to tell you that my new comedy album The Pride of Cleveland is out TODAY on 800 Pound Gorilla Records and I’m super pumped about it. It features jokes, stories, sweet guitar solos, and basically makes Hamilton seem like bullsh*t. You can get it here: https://800pgr.lnk.to/DaveWE
Buy it, stream it, turn it on and give it the finger. It don’t make no matter. I hope you enjoy it cuz it’s the best.
I also wanted to invite you to the Super Sick Facebook LIVE album Release Party I’m having TONIGHT at 7pm EST on my Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/TheDaveHill
You don’t even need to be on Facebook to watch it and totally party super hard with me. Just pour yourself a beverage, put on one those giant foam cowboy hats, and head to my Facebook page, where I will be talking, answering questions, playing a few songs, ripping a few sweet guitar solos, and begging you to buy my new album if you haven’t already for an hour straight. Did I mention it’s gonna be super sick? Yeah, well it is. Deal with it. In fact, I gotta go get the donkey in place now, so I’ll now just wish you love, light, and a third awesome thing of your choosing and hit send.
Your man,
Dave Hill
P.S.
Please tell 71 friends to pick up my album too or your computer will explode or something.
