RISING STAR, GEORGE DAVIDSON
Davidson was joined by Paraguyan harpist Eugenio Leon Miranda in a benefit performance for the Master Musicians Festival. Held each year in Somerset, KY, the Festival draws artists from across the country. Davidson's future success was indicated by the fans that lined up for an autographed CD, certain it will become a collector's item. Immediately after the performance, he was invited back to participate in next year's event. "George really has a gift," says manager Kerry Stallings. "His music has an incredible feel to it. His strong melody line carries you through each song so you can listen to it all day long." "He also has an incredible personality," she adds. "He has a certain kindness and charm. And he's extremely humble about his music." Davidson's musical style encompasses pop, classical, and easy listening music. Adding to the mix are French love songs, show tunes, and romantic music. The rising star's future plans include the release of a new CD which will contain performances of Titanic's theme song, "My Heart Will Go On" and Yanni's "In the Mirror." The CD, recorded entirely on a Yamaha CFIII, will be distributed by Mill City Music in the fall. Listening samples are available on Davidson's web page at www.georgedavidson.com. The performance website, www.broadcast.com will have a preview party prior to the CD's release. Davidson currently lives in Grand Cayman and also owns and operates GD Productions Inc. in Cape Coral, FL.
Since its return to Broadway last year, Chicago continues to grab critical raves. The musical revolves around two Jazz Age women who go up on murder charges and scheme to parlay their notoriety into show business success. A feast for the eyes as well as the ears, the production's choreography slinks and sizzles to the dynamic music of John Kander and Fred Ebb. Chicago was part of the '97-'98 Absolutely Broadway season of The Orange County Performing Arts Center, one of America's leading presenters of national and international performing artists and companies.
