Being a songwriter and having an incredible voice to sing those songs, David Nail can be a pretty romantic guy and what some would call a Renaissance Man, however, picking up around the house may not necessarily be his forte in life.

“We moved into a little bit of a bigger house, so we have beds in every room, and they kind of serve as places to put stuff on for me,” says David. “I’ll walk by and I’ll see a coat there, or I’ll see a pair of jeans, and I’m like, I need to fold that, or I need to put that on a hanger and put it in the closet, but I’ll just…find something else that I need to do more and keep procrastinating and three days later, it’s still sittin’ there.”

While he may not be good at picking up, he’s pretty proud of having loaded and unloaded the dishwasher at his home recently, even though he didn’t get the response he wanted from his wife, Catherine.

“I consciously had to force myself to do this, but I unloaded the dishwasher and then reloaded it, and then unloaded it again. And, I was so proud of myself. I mean, you’d have thought that I had spent three hours working,” says the Missouri native. “I couldn’t even wait for her to get in the door and figure it out herself. I had to call her when she got off work, and say, ‘You’re not gonna’ believe this, I unloaded the dishwasher.’ Like, I couldn’t even wait for it to be a surprise. And, I remember I got a little upset because she wasn’t quite as thrilled and proud of me as I wanted. I guess I wanted her to come in and do cart wheels, but it was a big thing for me. I’m still living off that.”

David is hitting the airwaves with his latest single, “Kiss You Tonight,” which is from his brand new album, I’m a Fire.

The Missouri native is performing several shows at the annual music conference, South-By-Southwest (SXSW) in Austin, Texas, and he’s set to be the first-ever country artist to perform on an Rdio Session to be held on Thursday (March 13th) at the Driskill Hotel.

“I’m so bad at picking up around the house, and just self-admitted, you know? The other day, it was so funny ‘cause I consciously had to force myself to do this, but I unloaded the dishwasher and then reloaded it, and then unloaded it again. And, I was so proud of myself. I mean, you’d have thought that I had spent three hours working. I mean, it was so simple, but it just…something you hate doing or don’t like doing, and I remember I couldn’t even wait for her to get in the door and figure it out herself. I had to call her when she got off work, and say, ‘You’re not gonna’ believe this, I unloaded the dishwasher.’ Like, I couldn’t even wait for it to be a surprise. And, I remember I got a little upset because she wasn’t quite as thrilled and proud of me as I wanted. I guess I wanted her to come in and do cart wheels, but it was a big thing for me.
