RIAF REVIEW: Jazz singer Kate Davis is wise beyond her years

Sun, 24 Oct 2010 22:45:57 GMT

Is she a bassist who sings or a singer who plays the bass? Does it matter? She has a distinctive vocal sound — rich yet reedy — sometimes soft on enunciation, but always strong on verve and tone.

She may be too young to fully appreciate the deep romantic emotions in some of her songs, but her often playful tone carries more heft than you might expect from someone so young.

"Hearing Davis in performance just begs comparison to another current, yet once younger, jazz phenom, Diana Krall, who is also renowned for her double talents with vocals and piano. Davis has an equal if not greater vocal allure and shows a greater alacrity for more adventurous jazz and more instrumentally focused works as well."
