Fresh from touring Europe with Rebecca Ferguson and Eels, acclaimed duo Daughters of Davis returned to the studio to record and release their second studio album, British Soul which came out in September of 2014. A raucous musical road trip, the record blends soul, country and gospel in the inimitable style of the Davis sisters.
From the upbeat tale of sibling rivalry in lead single Catch Me If You Can, to the ethereal retelling of the story of Bathseba; from the vocal gymnastics of the title track to the delicate and introspective The River; it is a record shaped by the group’s travels across the length and breadth of the country. Eclectic, passionate and packed with vivid visuals, this is British Soul.
Comprising sisters Fern and Adrienne Davis, Daughters of Davis have been taking their stylish blend of soul and folk across the U.K. since leaving the comforts of home, touring tirelessly and winning fans across the nation and whom are about to go on tour again, this time embarking on a set of U.K. dates in support to chart topping Sam Bailey. The tour will be coming to Liverpool on February 6th at the Empire Theatre.
Their travels are documented in their DVD Where Do We Go, recently named Best Documentary at the CRE Exhibition. They gained support from companies as diverse as Farida Guitars and The Caravan Club, and continue to tour tirelessly in their Elddis Accordo Motorhome.
These sisters have soul and live the folk ‘reverie’ that it is possible to turn your life around and live the dream if you’re bold enough.
Tickets for Sam Bailey’s night with Daughters of Davis as support are available from the Empire Theatre Box-office.
