Biography
Dave LaGrande is a Florida-based saxophonist, keyboardist, composer, and touring musician with more than two decades of professional live performance experience spanning concerts, theaters, television appearances, corporate events, festivals, private events, and national touring productions.
After spending more than 15 years based in Nashville, TN — including 12 years touring with platinum-selling band Sister Hazel — Dave recently relocated back to Florida’s Gulf Coast to spend more time with family while continuing to pursue select live performance, creative, and touring opportunities.
Over the course of his career, he has shared stages or collaborated with artists including Darius Rucker, Edwin McCain, Jelly Roll, John Berry, Heidi Newfield, and Tiffany, with appearances connected to productions such as the Grand Ole Opry, ACM Awards, The Today Show, and The Late Late Show.
In addition to live performance work, Dave remains active as a composer, arranger, and creative producer for film, television, animation, educational media, and licensing projects — work that continues to keep him heavily involved in the music industry while allowing greater flexibility for family life and select performance opportunities.
Known for professionalism, adaptability, and strong stage awareness, Dave continues to focus on high-quality regional performances, private events, artist support opportunities, corporate entertainment, and select national projects that are the right professional and creative fit.
