Mallett spent a decade in Nashville writing songs and co-writing with country music songwriter Hal Ketchum. David recorded his 17th studio album in 2016. “The Garden Song” has been recorded hundreds of times in many languages around the world (John Denver took it to the top ten) and it even inspired a children’s book, “Inch by Inch” (see Amazon).
~ "He harks back to the earnest ambitions and heartfelt melodies of Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash, singing with the conviction that folk can still be heroic." – The New York Times
