“PERSPECTIVES” BILLIE DAVIES
"Perspectives" is on Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube and other major retailers.
After all her music was taken off the market, "Perspectives" (formerly released as "Perspectives II" in 2018), is now being re-released and re-distributed as "Perspectives".
"All of my music is improvisational... a conversation between musicians and musical instruments. A joint emotional expression inspired by a certain common feeling, thought or perspective in an instinctual, unpredictable, freely expressed improvisation exploring authentic feelings and inspirations that is being communicated to an audience, a listener, a community." - Billie Davies
“Perspectives”, is an all spontaneous, instinctive, intuitive improvisation inspired by 7 perspectives, words and 7 chakra musical keys, expressed by a quartet of piano / keys / trombone, baritone sax / flute, bass, drums and vocals / spoken word by 2 female vocalists. Perspectives that affect all human beings, regardless of race, nationality, culture, gender, creed, religion, politics, social status and personhood. Abstract Expressionist Improvisations Neither confused by the light Nor blinded by dogma, color or political correctness An ever evolving improvisation, a message to raise the awareness of life and living, love and loving from a deeply natural, instinctive perspective. A symphony to mother nature, to the tree of life and people. One big conversation where each artist responds to another artist’s call, where each and every action taken is in response to another, all being influenced by each other, all being one and one with mother nature. A spontaneous expression through sound, through words and through movement, all expressing perspectives of Nature, Life, Happiness, Love, Freedom, Art and Rhythm.

album artist: Billie Davies
Drummer, composer Billie Davies left New Orleans 1 year ago.
In her words: "There is a time and a place for everything."
After spending eight years in New Orleans and recording three albums as a leader there, Billie Davies has made a permanent move to West Palm Beach, Florida. She decided it was time to return to her favorite environment in the world—the beaches at the Atlantic Ocean—in her preferred sub-tropical climate.
After her music had to be taken of the market in early 2021 as there was a record label and distribution deal involved, which did not happen thanks to Covid lockdowns and travel restrictions mostly, Billie Davies' music will now slowly become available again on the digital market.

About "On Hollywood Boulevard"
“DownBeat Magazine. January 2017 Editor's Pick. Billie Davies, "On Hollywood Boulevard". As a bandleader, Davies delivers an ambitious program that incorporates r&b-flavored vocals, propulsive bass lines, drum patterns with a swing feel, occasionally blues-tinged keyboard work, growling trombone, epic prog-rock synthesizer washes and brief bouts of hip-hop turntableism, all tied together with an improviser's approach. Indeed much of the album feels like improvised adventure, but that doesn't prevent Iris P from injecting some memorable, repeated vocal hooks as on "The Girl In The Window" when she sings about an "unreachable dream".” -Bobby Reed, DOWNBEAT (Jan 03, 2017)
Life is a beach.
The music is being re-released thanks to tools at my disposition at ReverbNation.
Thank you all for understanding...
