Dave Wood is the voice of KARTER. His style and originality is what helps make KARTER sound unique. His energy on the stage is awesome, like a mach 5 tornado hitting the earth. Known for clearing a mosh pit at his own shows, he is a force to be reckoned with. His vocal styles come straight from the heart and soul. His lyrics reflect pain, love, anger and happiness. Dave's influences range from Tool, Rage Against The Machine, Creed, Led Zepplin, Deftones, and just about anything that rocks. Dave started playing with Jonathan and Rob as a sophmore in High School. Since then they have been through a few bands, but when KARTER was born, so were four young men destined to change music and the attitude of it all. Dave's approach to the songs of KARTER is just like his approach to life, hit head on and let people know how you feel. Just take yourself to a KARTER show and you will feel it!
