JESSE DAVIS

Alto saxophonist Davis grew up in New Orleans. The late Carl Jefferson of Concord Records spotted his potential as a sideman on a session. and gave him his chance as a leader. The saxophonist established himself on the New York scene and learned a crucial lesson in the process. ‘The scene in New York takes you so far away from yourself. You spend so much time trying to play more than someone else or trying to write badder tunes than someone else. But it's not about someone else, it‘s about you getting with yourself and taking that journey within yourself to find yourself.’

(Kenny Mathieson).
