EDDY DAVIS

    Born in Indiana in 1940 he took an early interest to music. When he was only three of four years old he began listening to jazz records.  In high school he took it  upon himself to learn about every instrument there was.  He finally took up the banjo when the only job open in a band that he wanted to work with was the banjo.
        In college Davis majored in music playing bass.  While studying in Chicago there were numerous opportunities to continue working playing tenor banjo.  After college his banjo career took off in a new direction playing for the touring company of Hello Dolly and Mame.
        Over the years he was worked with most of the great jazz players. Other notable groups that he has worked with include  the Best of Spike Jones presented by "The New York Society for the Preservation of Illegitimate Music" with Cynthia Sayer and the Village Stompers. In recent years Davis has been involved with musical and acting projects with Woody Allen.
