As the year comes to an end and we reflect back on what has made 2015 as special as it has been, we thought it would be only fair to unify the musical forces of A Love Supreme with The Kush Club to bring you an artist who is forging his own path, with an inimitable style and the quality to boot.
Seven Davis Jr is of rare breed. As a child he was raised in Northern California where he trained as a gospel & jazz singer, brought up on the vocal influences of artists such as Prince, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson. Other earlier influences include classical artists like Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr and Burt Bacharach. As Seven Davis Jr evolved, his interests navigated him into the mainstream/independent world where he began listening to a more diverse range of artists such as Jimi Hendrix, Portishead, The Fugees, The Beatles, Tricky, Bjork and J Dilla.
Shortly after, House & Jungle found a young teenage version of Seven Davis Jr in the city of San Francisco's electronic underground, changing his life and sound forever. Before reaching adulthood Seven Davis Jr rejected several major label offers, instead opting to continue creating in private and remaining behind the scenes sharpening his own skills whilst ghost writing & ghost producing. Dark times fell upon him in coordination with his musical emancipation as he then spent years battling a heavy amount of addictions and unfortunate circumstances. These dark years only made his light stronger.
Not long after overcoming his "demons", Seven Davis Jr emerged to debut internationally on Kutmah's Worldwide Family Vol. 2 (Brownswood Recordings) with the track 'Thanks'. Other releases soon followed including, One EP (Must Have Records), The Lost Tapes Vol. 1 (IZWID Records), P.A.R.T.Y EP (Apron Records), and Friends EP (Classic).
If you like your soul music futuristic, leftfield, drenched in funk, artsy and intelligent, join Seven Davis Jr on his journey through the musical universe.
Rounding out the bill will see head honchos Alex Intas and Percy Miracles joined by Matt Treffene for extended sets well into the night.
