notes

Born and raised in Southern Maryland, Janine Davy seemed destined to express herself creatively. She was surrounded by music from the time she was born. Her Peabody-trained father was principle flutist with the United States Air Force Band and performed all over the world. Her mother, who sang like an angel and played piano, taught her children the joy of singing in harmony. Beginning with her first performance at the age of three, Janine progressed to a succession of musical instruments, including the guitar, flute, recorder and piano. It is her singing, though, that shows her passion and power. From ballads and folk standards, to sultry blues, to no-holds-barred rock and roll, Janine shows her vocal range and diversity in styling. While she dabbles in poetry and writing music for lyricists, Janine says her real joy is taking a song and making it her own.


Janine's quest for musical perfection was accomplished by employing the much sought after talented gifts of two-time Emmy Award Winners Lenny Williams, a pianist and former member of the Eva Cassidy Band, Steve Steckler, a producer of works for MTV, National Geographic, Discovery and Chris Biondo, a producer, bassist and former member of the Eva Cassidy Band. Janine recruited other members from the Eva Cassidy Band, as well. Keith Grimes, who played bass and guitar, Raice McLeod, who played drums, were also members of her band. She also collaborated with Steven Digman. Steven is a songwriter and has had his songs recorded by Eva Cassidy, whose albums have reached gold and platinum status and Katie Melua, a four-time platinum artist from the UK. Other musicians contributing to the sounds of Janine's album include Keith Mitchell (Bass); David Speake (Guitar); David Hill (Guitar); Benjie Porecki (Keyboards); Marsha Rubin (Background Vocals); Holly Brandon (Bass & Background Vocals), Janine's daughter, Anna Davy (Cello & Background Vocals), Janine's husband, Rich Davy (Guitar) and Janine's brother, Erich Seehafer (Guitar). Finally, Janine hired Grammy Award winner, Charlie Pilzer to master her album.

    I would give it a 10 star rating but Janine is one of the best I've heard well pretty much ever.

    author: Erich Seehafer

    Listen to the vocals, no pitch correction or enhancements of any kind! This cd has a big warm analog sound to it; very refreshing considering what's being offered these days.

    Not only does Janine display a large varitey of musical styles, but when you listen to the cd it sounds as if she is singing to you, not for you.

  • Awesome vocals!

    Dynamite renditions of old favorites, with a new twist. Originals are delightful. Astounding vocal range and diversity.

    Janine's voice is sultry and calming. The musicians that back her up are of well-known talent. With this album, it won't be long before Janine is a world-renown artist!

  • Great voice- looking forward to seeing her in concert
    author: Tim

    Excellent first album, the music and lyrics are first rate and Janine has a soulfull voice that really comes alive. I hope they release "Looking For You" as a single- could be a pop standard for years to come. I also was quite impressed with "Let's Go Out Tonight". Congratulations to all involved.
