Davina & the Vagabonds

Davina & the Vagabonds keep carefully the sounds from the ’30s alive, taking part in old-fashioned New Orleans jazz and blues in the 21st hundred years. There are a wry wink in the delivery of Davina Sowers. As the quintet’s frontwoman, she may sometimes reflection the phrasing of Billie Vacation and evoke Holiday’s ghost, however the group takes on this music as vintage memories, something that’s obvious on their 1st two albums, Dark Cloud and Sunlight. Sowers (vocals, piano), Matt Blake (bass), Dan Eikmeier (trumpet), Ben Hyperlink (trombone), and Connor McRae (drums) created Davina & the Vagabonds in Minneapolis in 2006. More than the next couple of years, the group gigged frequently, accumulating a status in the Twin Towns for his or her slyly up to date nostalgia. Their 1st album, Dark Cloud, made an appearance in 2011 and it gained positive reviews. Sunlight, arriving in 2014, bolstered the group’s popularity, charting at 13 on Billboard’s blues graph. In 2016, they released their third full-length, Nicollet and Tenth.
