“…Jamie Davis is one of my favorite singers.”  – Clint Eastwood, inspired by his performance at the Monterey Jazz Festival
“Paul Carr plumbs post-bop in his debut with a tart tone that darts and swings on neck-breaking tempos, yet turns deliciously dynamic on ballads…”
–USA Today (3 Stars)

Carr is known for his hard-charging and soulful post-bop style. Saxophonist Paul Carr upholds an important tradition as a performing Artist, as a Music Educator and Executive Director for the Jazz Academy of Music, and as Artistic Director for Mid-Atlantic Jazz Festival. Paul & his Quartet will delve further into the Jazz Standards, Ballads, & Jump Blues catalogue that has proven to be a crowd pleaser for them, along with their featured West Coast based Vocalist, Mr. Jamie Davis.

Singer Jamie Davis has a voice poured from the same mold that brought us Billy Eckstine, Johnny Hartman & Lou Rawls, & has performed with Milt Jackson, Eddie Henderson, Melba Moore, Pharaoh Saunders & The Count Basie Orchestra. With a repertoire from Cole Porter to Stevie Wonder to Charles Mingus, it's confirmed he possesses the flexibility and sexy sophistication by his effortless delivery to stand with any of the great masters. Jamie Davis has been described as a fine wine which has stood the test of time, constantly innovating jazz classics, ‘rolling out’ the blues and performing with one foot in the past and the other in ‘today’.
