David Fernandez, a Manchester-born singer and songwriter, has been immersed in the music world since the age of 19. Over the course of his career, he has collaborated with an impressive list of international artists, including Lisa Stansfield, Rowetta, and the late, legendary soul vocalist Denise Johnson.

Much of David’s recent music has been recorded at the iconic Abbey Road Studios in London, where he has worked alongside world-renowned producers such as Giles Martin, Matthias Stalter and Chris Marshall. When he isn’t writing or performing, he lends his talents to acting and voiceover work for both television and radio.

But despite a life surrounded by global talent and big-city energy, David’s heart was unexpectedly captured by somewhere far more tranquil.

In early summer 2025, a spontaneous “curiosity trip on the Metropolitan Line” brought him to Amersham for the very first time. What he expected to be a simple day out became something much more meaningful. He was, by his own account, “absolutely blown away” by the town’s beauty, history and unmistakable magic.

“It’s one of the most magical places I’ve ever seen,” he shared in a recent radio interview — a sentiment that beautifully echoes what so many local residents and returning visitors already know.

For a musician who has travelled the world and worked in one of the most famous recording studios on the planet, Amersham’s charm clearly strikes a special chord.

And we couldn’t be more delighted to have inspired him.
