"Proof positive that guitar rock is
alive and well. Jason is a great guitar player who knows how to serve
the song and still hang ten. "
- Reeves Gabrels, (solo artist, David Bowie, The Cure, NIN, Rolling
Stones)
The music industry is not a kind place.
Yet Jason Davis has been one of the fortunate, garnering
respect within the music community for his formal
educational background, performance and compositional
capabilities, and years of experience within the music
industry. As a self-described "sonic anarchist",
his maverick guitar styling, melodic/compositional
sensibility, and "left-of-center" musical disposition has led to artist
relationships with
Parker Guitars,
Randall Amplifiers,
Emerald Acoustic Guitars,
Lava Cable, and
Reverend
Guitars.
In addition, Davis' playing
and compositions are constantly heard in all forms of
media – even though he may not be immediately
recognized. Davis has written and performed music that
has appeared on “Saturday Night Live”, “The Tonight
Show”, “Access Hollywood”, E!'s “True Hollywood Stories”
series, and countless others. He composed the theme to
Court TV’s “Under Fire” series and has contributed music
to the NFL, NBA, ESPN, and Fox Sports to use in all of
their game and player coverage.
Davis has also performed
and shared the stage with such diverse artists as Reeves Gabrels (David Bowie/The Cure/NIN/Ozzy), MC Lyte,
American Idol’s Clay Aiken, Days Of The New, Cee-Lo of
the Grammy Award-winning group Gnarls Barkley, The
Nixon’s Zac Malloy, Richard Lloyd (Television), and the
Grammy Award-nominated Nappy Root.
On any given day, Davis can be found spending time with
his lovely wife and children, performing with a
menagerie of musical counterparts, constantly swapping
out effects on his pedal board, serving as the "evil
corruptor of youth" for his music students at a college
in his locale, and rethinking ways to
take over the world with six strings, a cranked
amplifier, and a renegade spirit.
