Mark Ronson – Late Night Feelings
June 12 2019
“Late Night Prelude”
“Just for my own sanity, when I start off a record, it has to be a little bit of a statement—something that’s a little grand and foreshadows the rest of the record. David Campbell, the string arranger, came up with this beautiful, slightly Barry White Love Unlimited Orchestra-inspired arrangement—a little slowed down and psychedelic…” – Mark Ronson
The Who – Moving On! Tour
June 06 2019

“David Campbell has been working specifically to get the orchestra to play like powerful rock musicians. He’s working the sections to get the horns or the strings to function like an electric guitar would – bolder notes, longer, bigger gestures.” – Brian Kehew
Cage the Elephant – Social Cues
April 18, 2019
Cage The Elephant has released their new album, featuring 5 songs with arrangements by David.
“… Social Cues took musical cues from ‘80s horror films scored by John Carpenter, and also benefited from a collaboration with Beck’s father, composer David Campbell… ‘What I’m Becoming’ shows off another fine use of strings that has Campbell’s name written all over it, building a cinematic dreamscape for Shultz’ apologetic lyrics.”
Iron & Wine – Our Endless Numbered Days (live) with LA Phil, NSO and CSO orchestras
March 24 2019
Iron & Wine’s Sam Beam performs his intimate, cinematic songs for the first time with orchestra to celebrate the 15th anniversary of his Our Endless Numbered Days, which was hailed as an understated masterpiece and named a top 50 album of the decade by NPR and Paste following its release in 2004. Featuring arrangements by David Campbell, who will be conducting at Disney Hall, National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center, and Cincinnati Symphony at the CSO Music Hall.
The 1975 – A Brief Inquiry into Online Relationships
The 1975 has released their new album! David arranged and conducted strings for the final track “Always Wanna Die (Sometimes)”.
Muse – Simulation Theory
November 9, 2018
“Whether they’re fighting alien invaders, shadowy government conspiracies, or the Apocalypse, Muse always do it for love. On their eighth effort, Simulation Theory, they attempt to break through the virtual matrix in search of that human connection and freedom from the machine.” David contributed strings and brass to this end.
Hanson – String Theory
November 9, 2018
“There were so many questions that we really needed to have a partner that was at his level — that had his level of experience,” Taylor tells PEOPLE of Campbell. “And there are really very few people that can even say they match him. His career arc has been made up largely of collaborations between contemporary music and symphonies, so he’s the perfect translator, so to speak, between our world and the symphony world.”

Barbra Streisand – Walls
November 2, 2018
“Barbra’s first album of mostly new material since 2005, it finds her addressing ‘troubling times’. It’s not a hectoring protest record, but it doesn’t pull its punches.” Featuring strings by David on the single “Don’t Lie To Me” and “The Rain Will Fall”.
LA Phil 100: Celebrate LA and 100th Anniversary Gala
September 28, 2018

Roger Daltrey – Tommy (Tour)
June 1 2018
“I’m really looking forward to singing Tommy, not only with my great backing group, but also some of the finest orchestras in the country,” Daltrey said in a statement. “Pete Townshend’s rock music is particularly suited to being embellished by the sounds that an orchestra can add to the band. With the arrangements written by David Campbell, it should make a memorable night of entertainment for all those who love the arts.” – Roger Daltrey
