History
Davis was born in Milwaukee and raised in Janesville, Wisconsin. He played on the first five albums released by the Steve Miller Band, as well as contributing lead and background vocals and songwriting. Davis left the band to work with others, such as Ben Sidran, as well as to commence a solo career. Shortly after his departure from Miller, Davis joined with David Lindley in a band supporting Terry Reid, appearing at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970.
Davis had a modest hit in 1972, "Buzzy Brown", written by fellow Wisconsin musician and Steve Miller Band co-founder James "Curley" Cooke. Davis continued an association with Steve Miller, resulting in Davis contributing two songs, co-written with Miller, to the 1984 Steve Miller Band album, Italian X Rays.
Davis died in 1988 from complications from diabetes.
