Based in Wellington, New Zealand, Dragstrip is pretty much a one man operation at the moment. That man is David Clark.
David Clark used to strum guitars in various bands throughout the 90’s, most notably in the Christchurch based swamp-rock band Ape Management. Untill various things conspired to divert his attentions to home recording and away from live performance.
Then in 2000 he teamed up with Wellington animator named Mike Heynes to provide the soundtrack for a rambling, 40 minute movie as part of the fringe festival. He needed a name to put on the credits and was reluctant to use his own so he stole one off the side of a board game box. David and Mike have since worked together on 6 more projects including one for television (that sadly got lost in the collapse of a company).
Since 2003 David has been pedling his songs around the bars of New Zealand.
