Artist Biography
Available in: gb icon flag icon flag icon
David 'Jack' Coverdale was born September 22, 1951 in Saltburn-by-the-Sea, North Yorkshire. Coverdale is an English rock singer most famous for working with Deep Purple, Whitesnake and Jimmy Page.

After the split of Deep Purple in 1976, David Coverdale began work as a solo artist. Despite the era's growing punk movement, he stuck true to his bluesy, rock and roll roots. In February of 1977, he released his first album titled White Snake, with all songs written by both himself and guitarist Micky Moody. In 1978, he released his second solo album, Northwinds, with an even better reception than the previous. Both albums reflected Coverdale's growing confidence in a future career outside of Deep Purple.

In 1978 Coverdale erected Whitesnake. Various line-ups followed (amongst others musicians were: Tommy Aldridge, Mel Galley, Jon Lord, Bernie Marsden, Micky Moody, Neil Murray, Ian Paice, Cozy Powell, John Sykes, Steve Vai, Adrian Vandenberg) during the period 1978 through 1991.

In the following two years Coverdale played together with Led Zeppeling guitarist Jimmy Page and recorded one album.

In 1997 David Coverdale release an album called "Restless Heart" with Vandenberg on guitar. Although meant for a solo album it was released under the name of Whitesnake. In 2000 Coverdale released his first solo album in 22 years, titled "Into The Light".

Whitesnake was reformed in 2000 and is still active.
