Dave Navarro Wiki: Early Life, Relationship with Mother and Father

Dave, of part-Mexican ancestry, is the son of James Raul Navarro, and Constance Colleen Hopkins – his grandparents from father’s side were Mexican immigrants. Dave went to Notre Dame High School, located in Sherman Oaks, California, during which time he was a part of the marching band, alongside his future colleague in Jane’s Addiction, Stephen Perkins.

When Dave was only seven years old, his parents divorced, and he would spend time with both of them, eventually more so with his mother in Bel-Air. However, Dave was struck by a family tragedy on the 3rd March 1983, when his mother was shot dead by one of her ex-boyfriends, John Riccardi, who wasn’t identified as the murderer until the early ‘90s, when thanks to a tip-off he was brought to justice. Unfortunately, the struggling teen , as he couldn’t cope with the loss of his mother; on the tragic night Dave had planned to stay with his mother, but at the last minute decided to spend the night at his father’s place.

Career Beginnings

Dave was interested in music from an early age, as he started learning how to play guitar at the tender age of seven, after he heard Jimi Hendrix. Gradually he improved his skills, and right after high school started pursuing a career as a guitarist. Thanks to his friendship with Stephen Purkins, the drummer of Jane’s Addiction, he was invited to audition, and became a part of the alternative rock band in 1986.

Rise to Prominence

Before the end of the ‘80s, the band became extremely successful, releasing the platinum album “Nothing’s Shocking” (1988), and continued with the “Ritual de lo habitual” in 1990, which achieved double platinum status. The band broke up due to internal disagreements in 1991, but has reunited several times since then, with a few changes in line-up, though Dave has been a part of every re-incarnation. The band released two more albums – “Strays” in 2002, and “The Great Escape Artist” in 2011. The band has currently been active since 2008, with Perry Farrell as the singer, Perkins on drums, and Chris Chaney on bass. Some of the former band members were Eric Avery, Flea from RHCP, then Martyn LeNoble, and Duff McKagan.

When Jane’s Addiction dissolved in the early ‘90s, Dave formed the band Deconstruction, with Avery on bass and vocals and Michael Murphy as drummer.

Since then, Dave has collaborated with a number of musicians, including the bands Nine Inch Nails and Guns N’ Roses, Alanis Morissette, Marilyn Manson and Christina Aguilera.

Dave also formed the band The Panic Channel, which was active from 2004 until 2007, with Stephen Perkins, and Chris Chaney.

Quotes

#Quote1Yeah, I can read music and I know the names of chords.2I've always recorded the same way. I put down as many ideas as I have, then strip them away at the mixdown. It's better to have too much music than not enough.3I've done a lot of talk shows where you can tell that the host is just thinking about what he wants to say next while you're answering him and that's really uncomfortable.4I'm not the type of player to sit home and practice scales and work on runs.5I'm thrilled I have the opportunity to do the 'Spread' show and have the terrific sponsors that we work with like Nikon or Verizon.6Jane's Addiction has only put out new music when our hearts were in and when we had something to say creatively.7Men are much more aggressive with their advances.8So as long as I can do the music or create, I'll feel fine.9For me, it doesn't matter how difficult something is, it doesn't matter how impressive it is, it's what sounds best that really counts.10Guitar playing is just something that came to me and is really second nature now.11I wish I was a shredder that could play everything, but I don't have the patience.12I'm as obsessive with health as I was with destruction.13I'm either shooting nine grams of coke a day or spending two hours at the gym. There's no middle ground.14There have been times when I felt suicidal and I would stop my head from going in that direction of negativity because I thought there'd be something I'd miss that was funny in the future. If there's a chance I'm going to laugh tomorrow then want to live to experience that.15It's impossible to compare two bands. It would be like comparing two lovers.16And I've also come to the conclusion that, as far as guitar solos and things like that are concerned, it's more important to complement the music rather than take away from it.17I have never been sexually aroused by a man. But I have yet to kiss Johnny Depp, so you never know.18As a viewer of television if there's something I don't like or find offensive, I just don't watch it.
