The lead singer of punk band The Loved Ones. In January 2011, he released his debut solo album, 'Resolutions', through Paper + Plastick records - touring extensively to promote it. A statement from the label, quoted on punknews.org, described the record's origins:
"While writing the follow-up to the last Loved Ones release (2009's Distractions, Fat Wreck Chords), Hause was writing songs that didn't seem like they would fit on a Loved Ones record.

Saw Dave performing this song at the Revival Tour which was great but figured out these chords on my own. I'll give you the chords and I tried to figured out the intro but for the solo you will have to care for yourselves if you want to do it or I'll just add it lateron...

Verse: A Spring is rolling in I smell the sunlight on your skin F#m Want to get on outside let our hair back into the wind? A I've been tired of hanging 'round, tired of all the news of decay F#m Getting tired of this town, and running out of reasons to stay
Pre-Chorus: DEF#m Just promise you'll stay mine DEA Just promise It'll all work out fine
[Repeat intro II] A The air is so cold this time of year, it's cold like a killer's sin F#m And the lonely old forced hot air dries out your skin A And it gets me so down when the loneliness spreads to your eyes F#m Don't tell me it's fine, I know it's a lie
Repeat pre-chorus Intro II again
Chorus: AF#m If we turn it up, the radio can sing us home DE The snow is melting faster now that sun's making me feel stoned AF#m Turn it up, c'mon baby sing along DEA Let's loose these winter blues an we'll stumble home
Solo
Pre-Chorus:
DEF#m Just promise you'll stay mine DE Oh, promise it'll all work out...
Chorus x 2
Ending: DEA We're gonna loose these winter blues and we'll stumble home
