Stuart Davis

"Without exaggeration, Stuart Davis is one of the most fascinating and exceptional songwriters in modern music." -San Jose Metro

Davis' career has been nothing if not surprising and iconoclastic. His passionate fan base has always gone to incredible lengths to participate in his multi-media career, including support from hundreds of investors and volunteers.

In addition to artistic circles, Davis has practiced Zen Buddhism with Genpo Roshi, and has held close ties to figures in philosophy and spirituality. Perhaps partly because of this, work has defied easy categorization; the artist constructed his own language (IS), writes, acts, and directs an original comedy series (the Stuart Davis Show), authored a forthcoming book for Shambhala / Random House (Sex, God, Rock 'n Roll, edited by Ken Wilber), released two volume audio book (Love Has No Opposite), is a prolific painter, and has performed over 1,000 concerts in the U.S. and Europe. His main focus - music - has included the release of a dozen albums. Davis has sold over 60,000 copies without retail distribution or label support. He's thrived, but seemingly off the radar.

Davis' newest album, Something Simple, released in March 2008, had a major kick start, with its first single being prominently featured in the major motion picture Drill Bit Taylor, starring Owen Wilson.
