Dave Rowntree wife: Is Dave Rowntree married?

Dave Rowntree, the rhythmic force behind Blur, is not currently married. Once married to Paola, a Canadian beauty, back in ’94, the marital journey hit a crossroads, leading to a divorce in the early 2000s.

Afterwards, Rowntree began dating Michelle de Vries.

Rowntree’s career isn’t your run-of-the-mill musician tale. Besides keeping the beat for Blur and co-penning chart-toppers like “Song 2” and “Parklife,” catapulting the band to Britpop stardom in the ’90s, he’s a maestro in various realms—music, film, and even soaring the friendly skies.

Beyond drumsticks, he dipped his toes into songwriting and production, sprinkling his creative magic across Blur’s musical landscape.

Post-Blur hiatus in ’03, Rowntree delved into music composition. His fingerprints grace the scores of films like “Control” and “The Escapist,” where his knack for crafting emotional sonic landscapes shines through. “Transmissions,” his solo album from ’05, voyages into electronica and ambient realms, revealing his sonic diversity.

But Rowntree’s passions soar higher than melodies. A licensed pilot, he relishes the skies’ unfettered freedom.

Politically active, he champions environmental and social causes, embodying a man who defies labels—drummer, musician, composer, pilot—unleashing his full spectrum on the canvas of life.
