OWEN DAVIS
For more than 40 years, Owen Davis has been writing songs that could be described as folk, and yet they are so much more. Davis combines the best of rock and ska with undertones of country. His diverse style mirrors his diverse life experiences. The native West Virginian has been a geologist, Peace Corps fisheries volunteer, glass factory worker, and a public-school science teacher.

Davis has played in numerous original bands most notably the Free Hummus All Stars as well as Gene Pool, who shared the stage with the Red-Hot Chili Peppers and the Swimming Pool Cues.

Davis waxes full of clever observations and unpredictable rhymes sounding like R.E.M.’s Michael Stipe backed by sitars and bouzoukis. — Charleston Gazette

Life has problems, these songs say, but hear the music, have some fun and enjoy the beauty. David Beard, The Dominion Post
