Besides her illustrious music career, Dionne Warwick’s proudest accomplishments are her sons David and Damon Elliott. “I have always encouraged and supported them with anything they wanted to do,” she shared with Closer Weekly. They both clearly inherited their parent’s musical talents. David co-wrote Luther Vandross’ hit 1989 song “Here and Now” with Terry Steele, which earned a Grammy nod for Best Rythm & Blues Song. He started his career as a drummer for Warwick and eventually opened for her. “In 2007, I started focusing on my musical direction. I’m basically talking to an age group that’s over 25 and I’m approaching my music from the standpoint that, when you see me perform it live, it will be the same as it is on the record,” he told Jango.
David is also a self-described “adventure-seeker,” per his Instagram. On July 3, he shared a shot of him flying a plane and wrote, “Getting it done @slingpilotacademy loving the training, super accelerated and super intense!!” He also became a PADI IDC Staff instructor in November 2022 and told fans, “Becoming an IDC PADI Staff Instructor, was one the most fun, challenging and rewarding experiences in my life.” It’s unclear if he’s in a relationship, but he is a proud father of two daughters and shared a sweet snap of them on Father’s Day. “My two heartbeats!!!” he gushed. David isn’t the only talented son of Warwick’s and his younger brother Damon also has his feet firmly in the music industry.
