About this Event
Take the enthusiasm and playfulness of early new Orleans rhythm and blues, add to that the bright yet cynical wit of Ben Folds Five, the rock meets jazz sensibilities of early Steely Dan, and the mocking humor that runs through the works of Franz Zappa, Professor Longhair, Allen Toussaint, Earl King and Ernie K Doe, and you begin to describe the music of Davis Rogan.
Davis is a fifth generation New Orleanian who grew up on Lowerline St near the cemeteries between Carrollton Ave and Broadway, went to McDonough No. 15 and Ben Franklin, and now resides in the Treme. He took piano lessons from Jon Cleary, was a DJ at WWOZ for 13 years and is totally hooked on New Orleans.
He first came to prominence in the New Orleans music scene with his eight piece funk group ALL THAT, for which he was lead singer, band leader, principle songwriter, arranger and producer. With three albums to their credit, including one on Rounder Records co-produced with Scott Billington. The band touring extensively in North America and Canada, performed at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival multiple times and sold over 10,000 records in the US and Japan.
