Member Since8/12/2004
Band Websitewww.cdbaby.com/cd/fayedavis2
Band MembersFAYE DAVIS : Lead & backing Vocals, Piano, Rhodes, String samples, Drum Loop programming. MIKE NEAL: Lead & rhythm Guitars, Bass, Mandolin. PHILIPPE AUBUCHON: Drums, additional Percussion & Loop programming, Sleighbells.
InfluencesI heard & embraced a lot of prog-rock (Rush, Genesis, Yes, Gentle Giant) and what has become known as classic rock (Heart, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Bad Co.,) growing up, thanks to my dad, as well as a lot of soul, funk, and motown (Earth, Wind, & Fire, Hall & Oats, AWB, Stevie Wonder) from my mama. Of course, being a child of the early '80s, my bedroom radio favored Pat Benatar, Madonna and Prince. In high school I simultaneously got into punk (Crass, Black Flag, Flipper) & new wave (The Cure, New Order and many embarassing others) AND the Beatles - in a big way. Throughout my college years, I floated on a haze of industrial, trance and "pretty goth" (Meat Beat Manifesto, Underworld, This Mortal Coil), all the while secretly keeping tabs on the R&B lexicon (Prince, yet again!), and appreciating the classic singer/songwriters (Joni Mitchell, Simon & Garfunkel, Carole King, Billy Joel). As far as female singers go, my personal faves are Janis Ian, Phoebe Snow, Minnie Ripperton, Joni Mitchell, Dolly Parton and Pat Benatar. As for music in general, I've always gone crazy over a plain ol' good song, in whatever genre.
Sounds LikeA mature, subtle yet complex weave of organic & manufactured textures, topped off with a soothingly truthful, expressive yet unpredictable voice. Think Carole King, Carly Simon, Joni Mitchell, early Heart ... a fresh update on the '70s-era singer/songwriters who gracefully jumped both genre and mood. A gracious fan who dwells in a certain mile-high village recently stated, "McLachlan, Griffin and Cohen -- they are your peers to my ears". He gets it. DigStation - Indie Music Downloads

   About Faye Davis
I was born, raised and educated in & around Philadelphia, PA. Looking back, I realize I've been writing songs for years, since I was about 10. In college I got more serious about it, then meandered my way around the country before setting my bags down in Los Angeles; a place I called home from September of '01 to October '08. Then I moved out of the crunch and into the Mojave.

Hi and thank you so much for adding me. I'm glad you liked my music. There is a video associated with my first song which speaks to the true Native American story if you would like to watch it at:



I have a second page with some of my older songs on it from the 1990s at:

www.myspace.com/joegoyette45

I appreciate your support. For me, it's all about the music. I love writing words, music, sharing songs, and telling you about the great artists that I have discovered.

Check out my blogs and bulletins when you have time.

Thanks again.

It is a great day to be alive!
What Question can I ask to empower myself and others?
What new thought can I notice now to add to my creativity?
How can I improve the experience of those I encounter today?
What can I do to facilitate your Gift?

Tomorrow is a Mystery
Today is a Gift...
That's why we call it the Present
