How many of you can say that your parents bought you an instrument to help with physical therapy because you dislocated your elbow? Thankfully David Katz, the man behind the project Altadore can! Which is the event that sparked his interest in music. The musician from Portland, OR is dedicated and ready to get his music out there, so take a look at his profile below and feel free to download his new album Golden Hills for free right here!

How did you begin writing and creating music?
I started to become interested in playing music when I was attending middle school. During the winter of my seventh grade year, I dislocated my elbow whilst snowboarding. My folks were very thoughtful and gifted me a First Act acoustic guitar that Christmas to help me with “physical therapy.”
What has been the highlight of your career so far?
I have only just started under the name Altadore, but the highlight of my career thus far would have to be when my single “Moments” was introduced and played on Portland’s local alternative radio station, 94.7fm.
Why should people listen to you? What makes you different?
The goal of this project is to eventually become 100% a solo project; where I write and record everything myself, and then have friends help me out with playing live. My recent release, Golden Hills, is the first step toward that goal. There are a few collaborative parts on the new record and my friend Zach Wilder composed and tracked drums for me. I’m looking to continuously grow and try new things with each release in hopes to eventually come into my own sound.
