Faye Davis: A soft-spoken songwriter with eclectic tastes.
Straight from her bedroom in Philadelphia to a recording studio in outlying Lancaster County, Faye Davis went to sing about her experiences and longings through songs she arranged one track at a time using self-programmed beats and basslines, piano, synths, strings, and the occasional guitar and saxophone.
Faye Davis' music has been featured on www.Broadjam.com since March of 2001. There, she repeatedly defies genre by consistantly charting in various listener-voted Top Ten's: Indie / Lo-fi, Alternative, Electronica, Soul, and R&B. She personally prefers to describe her sound as Earthy Pop, or Laid-Back "Eclectic-a".
Now residing in Los Angeles, Faye continues to write, compose, and arrange her own music, as well as work as a voice-for-hire. Ocassionally playing LA's live circuit, Faye is currently hard at work self-producing a new album, "Skybound".
:::NEWS::: 10/03/06
Faye Davis is near completion of her 2nd full-length album, "Skybound".
Philippe Aubuchon, (recording engineer and drummer on the above-mentioned Heller/Davis project) mans the controls at The Chicken Shack, his beloved Tarzana, CA-based studio, while Faye builds each of 11 new songs track-by-track, with some serious help from guitarist Mike Neal.
You might be wondering, Is this album more of the same, or a departure? Faye answers:
"I've always admired artists who could genre-hop without jarring the audience. That's what I'm going for on this one."
A North American "Skybound" tour TBA upon release.

Love, longing, and the lonesome few: An True Artist
author: Greg Lamboy
Faye Davis is the type of artist that you only begin to understand after repeated listenings. Don't get me wrong, you will immediately be hooked by the beauty of her voice and music and you shouldn't be surprised that the CD will find a home in your CD player for weeks on end. It's just that beyond her personal and aural beauty, and her considerable talent lies the heart of a poet, the mind of a genius and the soul of a sage. And it will take you a little while to realize that Faye teaches you things about love that you didn't know before. She is an artist of the first caliber. Don't take my word for it. Listen.
