Currently working on the new album, "12 Volt "... The whole idea for "12 Volt" came to me as we started feeling ready to move away from Hollywood and return to nature and a little more simplicity. The home in Napa became the perfect suited place for laying down the foundation for "12 Volt" as it is wine country, as well as being very much similar to some of the Wine regions in France, especially the Bordeaux regions around the city of Bordeaux, bordering Basque country, but also a lot like Tuscany...
That is where I lived the bohemian life, from Montpellier to Perpignan to Toulouse and to Biarritz and La Rochelle and then into the Bordeaux region, and performed and toured with all kinds of musicians, one in particular, Claude Mazet, an amazing blues and jazz guitar player made it so that everything electric in the RV ran on 12 volt, it is also that country where I ended up living for months with a gypsy clan, and it is that bohemian life that all the songs on the album "12 Volt" are inspired by.

Love, Billie Davies.
