David P. Allen's career in entertainment may be the product of a misspent youth. Somewhat unsupervised as teenager, he began doing character voices on radio and playing in bands at age 15. He landed his first full-time radio job at 18 while continuing to play live music.As a musician, David has performed all over the United States and has played stages on tour in Europe, South Asia, The Middle East and Africa. He's entertained our military onboard the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln in the Persian Gulf and the U.S.S. Harry S. Truman in the Arabian Sea.In addition to playing music live onstage, David has been an actor since 1992. His first feature film appearance was in the last "Gambler" movie installment starring Kenny Rogers and he's been seen in numerous feature films as an actor, stunt man and stunt/photo double. David was thrilled to appear in the Coen Brothers' adaptation of "True Grit" starring Jeff Bridges. "I would have done the film for nothing just for the chance to meet Joel and Ethan Coen... in fact, I think I may have...??"David's agent landed him one modeling job... ONE. But if your kids have the most recent Harper Collins release of "Little House On The Prairie", you'll recognize him on the cover as Charles "Pa" Ingalls... which his daughter believes is his greatest accomplishment.In early 2020, David founded PodPlays and Old Bank Media Group employing MEGA-HIT Nashville songwriters, artists & producers to create family friendly audio dramas featuring undiscovered "future hit" songs.
