Born and raised in Daytona Beach, Florida, Davis was immersed in music from an early age, inspired by his father’s extensive record collection. His influences are deeply rooted in classic ‘60s and ‘70s rock and blues, particularly British blues legends like Cream, The Faces, The Jeff Beck Group, The Yardbirds, The Rolling Stones, and The Beatles. However, his love for the blues led him to explore American Blues pioneers such as Albert King, Howlin’ Wolf, and Muddy Waters, further shaping his distinct sound.

“I started playing guitar when I was four years old,” Davis recalls. “The British blues movement really stuck with me—especially bands like Cream when they covered Albert King. That led me to go back and discover the originals, and that’s when I really fell in love with the blues.”

Now, Davis is poised to take his career to even greater heights with his highly anticipated sophomore release, Kiss the Ring. A self-produced collection, the album delves even deeper into the heart of Southern Blues Rock. Kiss the Ring surpasses his debut efforts, capturing the rawness and honesty of Davis’ live performances while delivering a stellar sonic experience.

The release will coincide with the launch of a nationwide U.S. tour, where fans will get to experience Davis and his band bringing their explosive live energy to audiences across the country.

With his undeniable talent, relentless passion, and a sound that bridges the past and future of blues rock, Dyer Davis is a name you won’t soon forget.
