If blues is indeed an incurable condition then Morgan Davis will gladly live out his life with a permanent affliction. He's used to it by now, and he goes about his business with a sense of humour and pride. Heading into his fourth decade in the music business, Davis is an important voice for the music we call the blues. He speaks eloquently and knowledgeably about his influences and the way that a strong sense of independence characterizes both his own career as a well as those who came before him.

The idea of independance is an important foundation in an understanding of the music we call "the blues." It may be through the geographical independance of traveling and life on the road, the cultural independance of freedom from popular trends, the physical independance of "finger tone," or the sense of self that gives different blues players that ability to grace their music with true personality. Independance is what the blues began with and it is what keeps it alive today.

Morgan Davis is a living, breathing and articulately-speaking example of the relationship between blues and independance. Born in Detroit but making Canada his home for over 30 years, Davis is a firm believer in both his preferred form of musical expression as well as the way that the expression emerges from a sense of being true to one's self. --- morgandavis.com
