Billie Davies News Update

BILLIE DAVIES
BillieDavies-drums-2
“The new kid on the block in New Orleans!'”
 
Billie Davies (born Billie Goegebeur, December 10, 1955 in Bruges, Belgium) is an American female jazz drummer and composer best known for her Avant-garde jazz compositions, as well as her improvisational drumming techniques which she has performed in Europe and in the US since the mid-nineties. (Wikipedia) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billie_Davies
  • Her 2012 release of “all about Love” solidified her position as a professional jazz musician.  This recording of standards and original music, charted #1 in CMJ Jazz College Radio Charts for ‘top jazz add’ in new albums and went on to stay there for 4 weeks.  “all about Love”  was also very well received in Canada where the album ended up in the Top 10 on three different !Earshot Jazz charts. (Available at the Louisiana Music Factory)
  • September 2013, Billie Davies was nominated for the top Jazz Artist award from the 23rd Annual Los Angeles Music Awards.
  • In October, 2013 Billie released “12 VOLT” which garnered national and international attention. CJ Bond, JAZZ MUSIC (an online jazz journal), wrote the following… “12 VOLT” features exclusively original compositions of Billie Davies, revealing yet another formidable creative talent in Davies' impressive artistic arsenal; making this an important CD for Davies, since it adds the crucial tyne of 'composer/arranger' to her sterling artistic fork, augmenting fearless innovation, and superlative drumming technique as well. (Available at the Louisiana Music Factory)
  • November 14, 2013 she received the “Jazz Artist of the Year” award on November 14, 2013.
  • Late March 2014 Billie, and her recording/producer husband Mike, moved from Los Angeles to New Orleans and is now ready to present her show to the world.
Her guitar player on “12 VOLT,” Daniel Coffeng, who hails originally from Amsterdam, The Netherlands, moved to New Orleans in November 2014 to rejoin with her, and brings a new, unique technical fluidity and energy to the world of post bop and avant-garde jazz improvisation.
 
"Davies is not countering the modern jazz movement so much but rather stripping it down to its essence. When listening to Davies play, it’s easier to think of her not as a drummer but a tonal painter who swipes brushstrokes with her drumsticks." (S. Victor Aaron)
"Davies is mostly an autodidact whose natural talent, relentless, explorative spirit and multifaceted experiences have led to an innovative approach to jazz." (Hryar Attarian)"With a background in Classical and Jazz and a lifetime of musical experiences in jams, performances, recordings and music production, the listener is treated to jazz inclinations within her ensembles that bristle with cutting-edge freshness." (C.J. Bond)
