I am David Caddell, a native of Tuscaloosa, AL. I am a graduate of Holt High School and a two-time graduate of the University of Alabama (ROLL TIDE!!!!). The 2021-22 school year marks my 16th year at Echols Middle School and 17th year teaching. Prior to working at Echols Middle School, I was an assistant band director at Hueytown Middle School and Hueytown High School. My primary instrument is trombone. I have performed in some local community bands including the Tuscaloosa Winds, Tuscaloosa Big Band, and the Alabama Winds. I drink a lot of coffee and enjoy playing trivia. I also really enjoy a good conversation over a really good meal.
