You are welcome to bring your favorite drinks too... lol.

I am aware that a lot is going on that weekend and that some of you might not make it, so maybe we will see you later at one of our upcoming concerts or other events...?


New CD/Album release:

The Billie Davies Trio, new CD/Album
"all about Love."
Going back in time, find some wonderful classics, and give them a contemporary/improvisational twist...
It gives her the greatest pleasure to be able to bring back these particular songs with a new perspective to an audience.

Announcing the official release of "all about Love" by The Billie Davies Trio on June 6, 2012.

Visit http//www.BillieDavies.com/Music.html tomorrow to hear previews of the album's content.

An adventure that Jazz drummer Billie Davies started about 6 months ago in Hollywood resulting in a wonderful Jazz release re-introducing you to some of the most wonderful Jazz clas

sics such as "Stella By Starlight" and "Afro Blue" and Original material such as "Downtown in the Rain" and "High Noon" and introducing you to Los Angeles Jazz musicians Tom Bone Ralls on Trombone, Oliver Steinberg on Bass, and Billie Davies on Drums.

Release Date: June 06, 2012. (Downloadable Album available June 06, Physical CD's will be available within 14 days from Release Date)

I would describe this music as "contemporary modal with a romantic twist" or perhaps "neo-Cool Jazz". Very much like Freddie Hubbard, Tony Williams, Wayne Shorter, Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy & Jackie McLean but in 2012. Lyrical, good phrasing, nice rhythms but at the same time very approachable and listenable even for non jazz audiences. One could not better describe it then "Post-Cool Jazz".
People:
On Trombone: Tom Bone Ralls
On Bass: Oliver Steinberg
On Drums: Billie Davies
Recording:
George Radai.
Mixing:
Mike Davies, Billie Davies.
Mastering:
John Vestman
at Vestman Mastering on 05/18/2012 in HD format.

Keep in touch!!!

Billie Davies
