The Steve Davis Quintet at Shea Center For Performing Arts at William Paterson University

About

Steve Davis is widely regarded as one of today’s leading improvisers on the trombone. His lyrical, hard-swinging style first gained broad recognition while working with the bands of jazz legends Art Blakey, Jackie McLean, Chick Corea’s Origin and the cooperative sextet, One For All. Steve has appeared in DownBeat Magazine’s Reader’s and Critic’s Polls numerous times, once winning the “Rising Star” award. He has also been nominated by the Jazz Journalists Association four years in a row as Trombonist of the Year.
