David Bazan (born January 1976) is an indie rock singer/songwriter from Edmonds, Washington. Bazan (pronounced “buh-zahn”) was the lead singer and creative force behind the now-defunct band Pedro the Lion and was the lead singer of Headphones, a band he formed out of his interest in synthesizers. He then released an album under his name, David Bazan.
Collaborations
In the early 90’s he played drums in the band The Guilty (later named Coolidge) with fellow songwriter Damien Jurado.[1] Bazan had attended Shorewood High School with Jurado.
In 2002, he played drums and sang backup vocals for Seldom; in 2004, he played with Starflyer 59. Bazan has made various studio appearances with Seattle-based bands; for instance, he played drums in 1998 on Unwed Sailor’s Firecracker EP[2], and contributed to the Rosie Thomas album These Friends of Mine.
Bazan was part of The Undertow Orchestra with Mark Eitzel (American Music Club), Will Johnson (Centro-matic, South San Gabriel), Vic Chesnutt, and Scott Danbom (Centro-matic, South San Gabriel). They toured the USA and Europe in 2006.
Bazan is a personal friend of comedian Horatio Sanz,[3] and performed at Sanz’s 2006 Christmas show, The Ho-Ho-Horatio Christmas Special, at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York City. In 2007 he did a Take-Away Show acoustic video session.
Bazan has worked with artist manager Bob Andrews of Undertow Music Collective since 2004.

"Strange Negotiations" is on position two in my list with best albums of 2011. Great urban folk rock, indie rock stories, which catch me with clever lyrics and right tone of voice and guitar of David Bazan. Thank you David for this beautiful journey with your urban view of things in our life.

It makes me so happy when people are freed from religion. Especially when those people put out awesome music as a result.
