Bassist DavidHungate is best known for his six years with the slick pop-rock/arena rock supergroup Toto, but he was a busy West Coast session player before he joined Toto and continued to be very much in demand long after leaving that outfit.
Although Hungate (who should not be confused with the poet/author DavidHungate) was born in Texas, he has spent much of his adult life in Los Angeles--which is where he made a name for himself in the early ?70s.
The ?90s found Hungate continuing to do a lot of session work in addition to recording his first solo album, Souvenir, which turned out to be an interesting departure for the bassist.
