Bio
May Davis is an emerging singer-songwriter who recently relocated from Revelstoke, BC to the beautiful Ottawa Valley. Her unique and unforgettable sound pulls from blues, americana and old-time country western with smokey vocals that echo vintage crooners like Bobbie Gentry and Janis Joplin, but the unforgettable stories and songs she brings to the stage are all her own. Davis unveiled a trio of foot-tapping tunes in 2023 and a deadly music video for her project, Black Widow, supported by CreativeBC. She recently opened for notable bands including Frazey Ford, Elliot Brood and Shred Kelly while headlining Kaslo Jazz Etc. Festival and Tiny Lights. May Davis has plenty more tricks up her sleeve for 2024 including a performance at Ottawa Blues Festival so buckle up and stay tuned!
During a performance by May, audiences can expect witty storytelling, gritty original music, overflowing pockets of dad jokes and stage banter that makes folks think they may indeed be at a comedy show!
