Strung Out Episode 155. THE PHILOSOPHY OF ART. SINGER-SONGWRITER, LUTHIER, ANDON DAVIS

Send us a text

We resume our series of the Philosophy of Art.  And, we are going to lean a bit toward some great singer-songwriters that call Chicago home.  Back in the 1960's through the early 1980's, Chicago was a mecca for singer-songwriters.  Great, legendary names like Goodman, Koloc and Prine were part of a scene that attracted crowds and record scouts alike.  Many other great singer-songwriters came after the heyday of the folk scene ebbed, musicians like Tom Dundee, James McCandless, Jamie O'Reilly, Michael Smith to name a few.   These artists may not be as legendary as others, but significant to the contribution to the independent artist-journeyman musician that is part of the city of Big Shoulders.  Enter Andon Davis, a multi-talented musician, songwriter, sideman and luthier.  Raised in downstate Illinois, Davis made Chicago his home and proceeded to blossom on the varied music scene that was Chicago of the 1990's.  Being in several bands, Davis managed to carve a career that has kept him active to this day, not only as a go-to guitarist, but also for his artistry as a luthier.  That skill brings select clients knocking to his door.  Humble and homespun, meet Andon Davis.
