Getting to Know...
David Harvey | Millennial Reign
This is a monthly article where we get to know those from the Christian music industry a little bit better. We find out what is going on in the lives of your favorite musicians, writers, artists, and more...
In this month's article, we caught up with David Harvey from "Millennial Reign" and got a little personal...
D2S: Who was your childhood hero?
David Harvey: I was never into the marvel hero's like the majority of kids were, I grew up watching and reading science fiction. Most of the people I looked up to as a kid were actors like Charlton Heston, John Saxon and William Shatner. As far as one specific person I just don't really recall anyone.
D2S: What is your favorite pastime?
David Harvey: Other than playing guitar, it would have to be working in the studio. I spent the last ten years learning the process so I could do my own production. Definitely worth the time and money spent.
D2S: What is the craziest thing you ever did?
David Harvey: I know this is pretty boring but I've actually lived a fairly tame life. I was raised in a generation when common sense ruled and was taught in every home. Those days are long gone. There are a few stupid things I did in my youth, especially during my military years but nothing I'd care to glorify.
D2S: If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be?
David Harvey: Well, between the military and this band I've been in quite a few different countries but if you'd asked before the c-ovi-d insanity I probably would have said Australia. It's basically become a penal colony again so I don't really feel that way anymore.
D2S: Who had the greatest influence on you as a guitarist?
David Harvey: Randy Rhoads. In fact if you go to the Millennial Reign YouTube channel there are several videos of me covering his solos. Such a shame he died before he had a chance to truly live.
D2S: If you could tour with any three bands, who would they be?
David Harvey: Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and maybe one like Nightwish or Epica. The first two were my biggest influences once I became more advanced on guitar.
D2S: What is your most memorable moment as a musician?
David Harvey: That's an extremely difficult question. There are so many great moments that it's impossible to narrow down to one. Long story short, God has truly blessed me with meeting and even now calling a lot of musicians I grew up following, friends. Especially Stryper and Petra. Both of those bands completely changed the outlook of my life musically.
D2S: Besides guitar, what instrument would you play if you could?
David Harvey: Keyboards, hands down. There is huge shortage of competent keyboardist in my genre of music. Hence why we sequence our keys when playing live.
D2S: When did you first come to Christ?
David Harvey: About two years after exiting the service around 1988. I always had a knowing in my spirit about a lot of things even though I wasn't raised in church. A friend invited me to a revival at his church and I left there a completely different person.
D2S: What is your favorite book of the Bible?
David Harvey: Probably Genesis if we're just talking about an interest point of view. Several events fascinate me, like the Nephilim, the Tower of Babel and other things that aren't really deeply explained.
D2S: If you could witness any Biblical event, which would you choose?
David Harvey: It'd be a toss up between the parting of the Red Sea or the day being extended for Joshua. Those had to be absolutely phenomenal to see in real time.
D2S: How do you stay spiritually fit?
David Harvey: By staying in the word, either by listening to good teachers and/or reading it. That should be everyone's answer, if you're not in the word daily then you're weak and easily defeated. Ephesians 4:27 do not give the devil a place. (Topos)
