TONY DAVIS - Guitar
Hailing from Hartford, CT, Tony Davis is an internationally acclaimed guitarist, vocalist, composer, and producer based in New York City. He has performed at prestigious venues such as The Blue Note, The Village Vanguard, Smalls, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and Birdland, and at major festivals including the Newport Jazz Festival and the Greater Hartford Jazz Festival. In 2016, he was recognized as a rising star guitarist at the Wes Montgomery Tribute Festival in Indianapolis, IN performing alongside legends of jazz guitar such as Bobby Broom, Peter Bernstein and Pat Martino.
Tony’s music seamlessly blends elements of various Latin traditions, folk, rock, and classical music into his deep roots in jazz and blues, contributing a unique and compelling voice to contemporary music. He has recently led performances in Mexico, Chile, and Paris, and over the years, he has shared the stage with notable musicians like Anderson .Paak, Christian McBride, Joe Farnsworth, George Coleman, Abraham Burton, Sullivan Fortner and Harold Maeburn.
In 2020, he signed with the acclaimed record label Posi-Tone and released his debut album, Golden Year, which features an all-star lineup including Dezron Douglas, Eric McPherson, Steve Davis, Alina Engibaryan, JK Kim, Steve Wilson, and David Bryant. His unique style and musical prowess quickly garnered attention, cementing his place as a significant contemporary artist. In 2022, Davis furthered his career by signing with La Reserve Records, a leading force in modern genre-crossing music. His first release on the label was Daring Two Be, a duet album with Brazilian vocalist Jamile Ayres. This was followed by Cloud Nova (2024), a full-length album that marked his first major foray into the singer-songwriter realm while still rooted in jazz. His next album, Jessamine—a deeply personal and stylistically expansive project—is set for release in Fall 2025.
Davis’ ongoing contributions to the music scene reflect his dynamic artistry and his commitment to pushing the boundaries of contemporary jazz and beyond.
