Dave Giles II

Dave Giles II is a Chicago-bred, LA-based artist, producer and songwriter, who’s penchant for Diasporic dance music has amassed radio spins and chart placements in over 30 countries, and syncs in feature films. Notably, he is a co-writer and producer of Beyoncé’s hit song COZY from her #1 album, RENAISSANCE. His collaboration with house music icon Honey Dijon, Work (feat. Dave Giles II, Cor.Ece & Mike Dunn) dominated UK radio and he has seen recent releases with indie labels Classic Music Co (Defected), Snatch Records, Bastard Jazz, Razor-N-Tape and Moodswing Music.

In partnership with producer Sam O.B. as Dave + Sam, they have worked extensively with UK-based Defected Records — including their acclaimed debut album No Shade (2021) and remixes by dance producers such as Derrick Carter, Nick Godmode and Harry Romero. Dave + Sam’s new single Love Feels is a progressive summer pop confessional that furthers their mission to package love, empowerment and socio-political commentary atop a globally-informed fusion of house, hip hop, and electronic dance.

Through his musical journey, Dave has leveraged empathy, accessibility and craftsmanship to compose globally-informed jams from a localized perspective.
