Dave Cartwright (born in Haslemere, Surrey, in April 1943; died 8 August 2015) was a British singer, songwriter, guitarist and author remembered for his 1970s solo albums.

Cartwright grew up in Amblecote, West Midlands, where, on lead guitar and vocal, he formed his first rock and roll group, The Crossfires, in 1959. He then joined the Kidderminster outfit The Clippers, before 'discovering' folk music in 1964. His subsequent folk club work and the signing of a deal with Transatlantic Records in 1970 enabled him to turn professional in 1971.

He is remembered for his 1970s solo albums and TV appearances on BBC daytime show, Pebble Mill at One, and as a former music presenter on BBC local radio in the UK Midlands, where he hosted two shows, 'Rock'n'Roll-The Vintage Years' and 'Folkus', an acoustic showcase. Both shows ran for over 13 years. Later in life, he produced and issued his own recordings on his Luna label, from his home studio in Worcestershire, whilst still performing in the UK and Europe.

Cartwright was the co-writer of "A Letter To Syracuse" with Bill Caddick, as recorded by Christy Moore on his album 'Prosperous'. He was also the author of a biography of the late Kidderminster singer-songwriter Clifford T. Ward, entitled Bittersweet. In the year of publication, the book was voted third best biography in Record Collector 's review poll.
