David Heavenor is a Scottish singer-songwriter, born in Kingston, Jamaica, who has produced four albums: Private: The Night Visitors (1993, with Simon Jaquet); Winter’s Children (2001, Sticky Music, Produced by Steve Butler); The Automatic Eye (2006, Produced by David Scott) and " In Northern Towns Like These " 2009. He has been called the mystery man of Scottish music by Davie Scott,  Radio presenter and  musician  in  Scottish Band The Pearlfishers. Journalist and broadcaster Tom Morton writing in The Scotsman called his song Linger and Go  ‘a masterpiece of songwriting.’  In his Scotsman review Tom Morton described it: ‘ Songs made to last. Delicate and full of diffident power. The cool delivery remains somewhere between Al Stewart and Nick Drake, the unexpected guitar runs, the lyrics you can’t quite pin down, but which  echo round you brain, shifting meaning, ornate yet direct, complex and with an overwhelming sense of Edinburgh in winter.’
