Synopsis

Album Description
When we remember youth, we think of certain things. A crease in a bed cover, the smell of bacon from the kitchen, or the shine of our favorite pair of shoes. Katherine Davis remembers a pair of clean new shoes. Shoes that walk the line between blues and jazz, gospel and soul. Shoes that don't hurt, but bend to the protracted rigors of life. And with "Dream Shoes", Katherine Davis presents the debut of her new label....Katy "D" Records. Katherine Davis
Dream Shoes SOUTHPORT/KATY "D" S-SSD-0071 Katherine Davis is a singer. Her mix of jazz/blues and swing paint a rich Chicago story of sounds that fill the air like early morning fog from Lake Michigan. Dream Shoes marks the debut of Ms. Davis's on CD as a leader and the beginning of her own private label-Katy "D" Records. We live in times of auto-information and instant labels. Actually there is no simple or single way yo describe the life and music of Katherine Davis. As an urban child many of her earliest musical roots find there foundation in the church. She seems to have no restrctions when it comes to jazz. blues and swing-the true fire comes in the mix and her prfound way with songs. From the classic blues sound of her original "Blues And Bulls", to the jazzy bend of "You Choose", Katherine gets inside the sound and the song. Check out drummer man Redd Holt's latin groove on "What A Difference A Day Makes", and the sexxy lyrics of "You Can Ride My Train." The sound. is jazz. The sound is blues. Blues piano great Ervin helfer makes a guest apparence on 2 cuts! Chicago's Southport Records moves into the next century with over 70 musical projects in its rich Chicago catalog. Bradley Parker-Sparrow/Partner, Southport Records Band members: Featuring: Erwin Helfer, Redd Holt, Joe Johnson, Cecile Savage, William Simms, Nate Stuart, Phil Thomas and John Whitfield.
