Now for the first time in Europe with his own band, you can expect some real
uptempo shit, a must for bassfreaks!
Los Angeles native Melvin Lee Davis was discovered at the tender age of 16
by Buddy Miles, when a horn player from Buddy Miles' band heard Melvin playing
in a local club. Buddy Miles flew Davis to New York to audition for his band
and immediately hired him. After playing the New York club circuit, Melvin
found himself working with Don Cornelius of Soul Train. He has toured and
recorded with Chaka Khan, the Pointer Sisters, Lee Ritenour, Bryan Ferry,
David Benoit, Larry Carlton, Patti Austin, Gladys Knight, and many other top
acts. Davis wrote the theme for the TV show "The Party Machine" and "Soul
Train's A Coming" and has appeared on "Johnny Carson", "David Letterman",
"Jay Leno", and "Arsenio Hall." Melvin has travelled the world and continues
to be in high demand across many genres of music because of his incredible
talent and positive demeanor on and off stage.
