DAVINA AND THE VAGABONDS ANNOUNCE

NOVEMBER RUN OF THE NORTHEAST

Tour Kicks Off At Buffalo’s Iron Works On November 4

 

Minneapolis, MN — Davina and The Vagabonds has announced a run of the Northeastern U.S. that commences in Buffalo, NY on November 4 and will wrap in Cleveland on the 15th. Over the past few years, the band has created a stir across the globe. Their shows are filled with New Orleans charm, Memphis soul swagger, dark theatrical moments that evoke Kurt Weill, and tender gospel passages. Singer/pianist Davina Sowers’ presence is indelible, while her voice defies simple categorization. Evoking comparisons as diverse as Etta James, Amy Winehouse, Billie Holiday and Betty Boop, she is simply a true original, presenting a personal vision that celebrates a century of American music.

In front of the upcoming run, Sowers’ shares, “I am unbelievably thrilled to be back in the Northeast this coming November. It’s a perfect time with the leaves changing and crisp air. I was born in Pennsylvania, and often need my dose of the regions music loving, hardworking, and no nonsense way of living. It’s been long overdue. So, here we come hitting six states in eleven days. Get ready!”

Davina-2392-trimmed-202x300In 2011, Davina released her first full length, all original album Black Cloud. It was named one of the ten best releases of the year by their hometown daily the Minneapolis Star Tribune, and awarded 4 ½ stars from Downbeat Magazine. Their next release in 2014, Sunshine, hit number 13 in the Billboard Blues Chart, and led to an performance on the famed hit BBC show, Later with Jools Holland.

 This rollicking quintet is held together by Sowers’ along with acoustic bass, drums, and a spicy trumpet and trombone horn section. The group’s focused, clean sound and emphasis on acoustic instruments is novel to both blues and jazz worlds. With influences ranging from Fats Domino and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band to Aretha Franklin and Tom Waits, they are converting audiences one show at a time around the globe. Davina and The Vagabonds are represented by Intrepid Artists Int’l.
