This is Rock "N" Roll at its Best!!
Don't miss DK Davis & Suspicion

The reaction to the new CD is already HOT...............

"Hi there DK. Several years ago you sent me one of your CD's which has received lots of airplay here in Adelaide. I know you would like to visit Australia and I have been trying to get a promoter to get in touch with you. I realise that the CD Suspicion is a single and it will get a " bashing " here on radio. Well done on this great song. I thought I had it heard it done as much as possible but then up you come with your version on hotsdisc. It is fabulous. I have played it for several of our announcers here at the station and they all agree it is great. I play your stuff frequently on radio and the listeners are always asking for more.
Look most forward to hearing from you my friend.
Best regards Barry Gower Adelaide's Coast-FM. SOUTH AUSTRALIA .
Keep up the great work."

Beach Music Day

On May 16, 2006, DK Davis performed at the 2nd Annual North Carolina Beach Music Day in Raleigh, North Carolina.  This fest in an all-afternoon event sponsored by The Beach Music Association International and was held on the lawn of the State Capital Building.

Dk liveDK was thrilled and honored to share the stage with legends of the music industry Dee Dee Kenniebrew of The Crystals; Herbert Hardesty, who played lead saxophone on all of Fats Domino’s hits; The Orioles, “Crying in the Chapel”; and Clifford Curry, “She Shot a Hole in My Soul.”  DK was also interviewed for a live on-air broadcast by radio station WNCA (AM1570).  The Embers backed each act up and they did a fantastic job.

That night, there was an after party and another concert with all of the acts performing once again at The Sheraton Inn Downtown Raleigh.  The ballroom was packed and the crowd rocked the night away.

It was a gorgeous day for an outdoor concert and the after party was great fun.

The night prior to the concert, as DK sat and talked to all of these performers and they were telling stories, DK called his good friend, legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Fame DJ, Dick Biondi who was in the middle of his oldies rock show on the new WJMK internet radio.  Dick was thrilled to be able to talk to his old friends and did an impromptu on-air interview with each entertainer.  Everyone had a lot of fun with this and it was great to sit and listen to them talk to Dick on the air.  DK had a great time and enjoyed hanging out with and hearing these legends reminisce about “the good old days.”

interviewDK would like to say thank you to North Carolina Secretary of State Elaine Marshall and her staff for doing a wonderful job in helping BMAI to organize this event.  DK would also like to say a special thank you to both Billy Scott, Chairman of BMAI and to Harry Turner, President of BMAI for putting this entire event together and for inviting DK to be a part of this incredible day of music. Below are a few other photos from this event.

DK Davis enjoyed a wonderful few days in Hollywood the end of June when he attended the New Music Weekly Award show at the fabulous Key Club Theatre.

On arriving at the theatre, DK walked the red carpet and was stopped numerous times for TV interviews and photos.

Co PresentersHe was a presenter at the show along with Cerrito, who was also a fellow nominee for “Crossover Artist of the Year 2003.” As DK came onstage to present, his brand-new song, “Rag Top Down,” which was released on June 25, 2004, was played. He danced across the stage doing his trademark “DK hip-shimmy” as he sang to the song and the crowd went WILD!! DK and Cerrito did an incredible job as they presented two awards.


As the grand finale to a fantastic show, DK sang in an ensemble cast to a rousing version of “Revolution.” Included in this musical finale were Tom and Larry Weir of New Music Weekly, Ronn Moss (“Ridge” on the Bold and the Beautiful), Peter Beckett (lead singer for the band “Player”), and movie star Corey Feldman. The crowd roared as this group rocked the show to a close.

everyone

It was an amazing few days and DK met so many people, made many new friends and made so many great contacts that he was not even disappointed when Tim McGraw won “Crossover Artist of the Year 2003.”

Congratulations DK on a job WELL DONE!!!

PaperDK Davis performed at the First Annual Beach Music Day in Raleigh, NC.  DK sang a heartfelt rendition of “Turn Back the Hands of Time” as a tribute to his long-time friend, R&B great, Tyrone Davis.  Then DK went on to rock Raleigh with his own version of “Great Balls of Fire.”  His energetic performance captivated the crowd, young and old alike, and was showcased on CBS-affiliate RAL news broadcast that evening along with coverage in all editions of the News & Observer the next day.  DK is quoted as saying, “It was an honor to be a part of this wonderful event and I would like to thank Secretary of State, Elaine F. Marshall, Billy Scott, and Harry Turner for the invitation to the this fantastic day of music. It was a LOT of fun!"

 



Rag Top
DK Davis has just released his new single, “Rag Top Down” on an extended-play cd. Also on this new cd, are his hits, “As One” and “Don’t Cha Know,”
and“My Secret Love.”
 

DK DB

Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame DJ , Dick Biondi, a close friend of DK's, does a fun introduction at the beginning of “Rag Top Down,” as if he is introducing the song on his radio show. It is a very cool and unique way to introduce this new song.

“Rag Top Down” was written by Ron Moody.  “Rag Top Down” is a retro 50’s good ‘ole rock ’n’ roll song that will have America on it’s feet, dancing and reminiscing about the sock hops and the malt shops!! The packaging for “Rag Top Down” is also unique and looks like a 45 rpm record. You will not want to miss out on this CD. It is one-of-a-kind and you will want to make sure to add it to your collection.


Speaking of Dick Biondi......... In a recent interview he spoke about DK as an entertainer and about his LONG friendship with him..... LISTEN HERE
