David James Kennedy (born July 8, 1976) is an American guitarist, songwriter and performer. He currently plays guitar for the alternative rock band Angels & Airwaves and hardcore group Hazen Street.
He was also a member of Box Car Racer, a musical collaboration launched by Tom DeLonge, along with member Travis Barker, both from Blink-182. Box Car Racer, then a side-project to Blink-182, put out its only album in 2002. Hazen Street became popular after touring with P.O.D. in the summer of 2004. Kennedy was also a member of the hardcore group Over My Dead Body from San Diego, California, and worked with rock group Built to Last. David and bandmember Tom DeLonge are close friends and grew up together in Poway, California.
While playing with Angels & Airwaves Kennedy is often seen playing a Gibson Memphis Custom Shop ES-335 Diamond Limited Run Electric Guitar. A Semi-Hollow body similar to that of Tom's signature ES-335 including the fact that they both use Gibson Dirty Fingers Humbucking Pickups on the Bridge of their guitars. It would also appear that Tom and David favor Mesa Boogie amplifiers when they play live. Finally both Tom and David use Gibson Bright Wires (.10) electric guitar strings.
