BILLIE DAVIES Music

The new official website for Billie Davies has been completed. It has a new face and a new interface that is more mobile friendly ... Her bio has been updated to current and it has a nice gallery that shows photos, full length videos of performances and random photos of Billie Davies and her line-ups...  You can now also get downloads of her albums direct from the artist and you can listen to her music right there. We will soon be adding previews of new material for a new project by Damani Butler that is in the works. It has Billie Davies on electronic drums, Maude Caillat on tenor sax and Damani Butler on electronics and digital sounds and it may have other guest artists. It looks like it will be performed a first time on Feb. 13, 2020, by invite only. As we have opted for a Wix free site there are two ways to get there: http://www.billiedavies.com or  https://billie42.wixsite.com/billiedavies billie davies official site
