Davey Ryan Edward Langit (born December 20, 1986) is a singer, songwriter and instrumentalist who kicked off his music career during Pinoy Dream Academy's first season (2006). He honed his singing and songwriting prowess during his stint writing songs like Dinggin, Sikat Ako (PDA Album Vol.2 and 4 respectively), Spending My Life With You, Awit Para Sa Kanya and even Yeng Constantino's hits Cool Off and Time In (from the album Salamat). He then merged with fellow scholars to form the short lived Cebalo band which re-arranged and performed Pinoy Ako for PBB's second season.
Davey also wrote songs for the movies Katas Ng Saudi (2007 MMFF – "Sa Aking Pag-Uwi") and Magkaibigan (2008 MMFF – "Kaibigan"). His successive exposure to the gig scene further enhanced his stage play leading to him signing with Viva Records on June 2009 – hence the creation of Mad About Acoustic (2009), Lovex2 (2010 – with Raffi Quijano) and Mad About Acoustic 2; ukulele versions (2011) under the supervision of musical genius, Sunny Ilacad. Poker Face and Jai Ho are some of the hits re-created.
Davey continuously writes and arranges songs for himself and for other artists as well. He has contributed "You Still Have My Heart" for Princess Velasco's Addicted to Acoustic 2, "Bestfriend" for Yssa Alvarez' Addicted to Acoustic album, and "The Love Song" for their duet album together with Raffi Quijano.
Today, Davey is promoting his songs through mall shows, gigs, guestings and events all across the Metro and the whole country as well. His song "Selfie Song" has invaded the social media with having 1 million hits on YouTube in just a span of 3 weeks.
Davey is one of the finalists in the Philippines' biggest songwriting competition, the Philippine Pop Music Festival (Philpop 2014) with his song "NGSB" (No Girlfriend Since Break) interpreted by Luigi D'avola. In Philpop 2015 he placed 1st Runner Up with his song "Parating Mo Na Siya."
He is currently one of the hosts in Net 25's daily morning show, "Pambansang Almusal"
On September 2014, Davey signed with Alcasid Total Entertainment & Artist Management Inc. also known as ATEAM, a new talent management owned by OPM icon, Ogie Alcasid.
