DK 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.
DK 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. 
He
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.

DK Davis Hits Front Page
DK
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 Down
 Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame DJ , Dick Biondi
(pictured on left), 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.....
