Guy Davis gets around. As in around the world. Nicknamed "An Ambassador of the Blues” by an Ecuadoran journalist (Davis is quick to point to BB King as THE Ambassador), he has seen his musical vision carry him to some interesting places. He performed at the first concerts held on the Galapagos, at the invitation of the Ministry of Culture, and has performed for the Queen of Denmark. Greenland, Indonesia, Portugal, the list of stops on his passport is extensive. Born the middle child to famous parents, Guy Davis knew early on that he loved to make sounds.
On stage he seems a natural. With a quick joke and an easy laugh he dives into a song with gusto, engaging the audience and transporting them to the places and people that populate his lyrics. And while it might seem effortless, he has paid his dues. Speaking with him, there is no doubt that he benefited from growing up in a loving home and observing his famous parents.
