Davina and the Vagabond shows are filled with New Orleans charm, Memphis soul swagger, dark theatrical moments that evoke Kurt Weill, and tender gospel passages. Davina’s voice and stage presence defy category in a different way. Davina has been compared to Etta James, Amy Winehouse, Janis Joplin, Billie Holiday and Betty Boop, but comparisons don’t suffice: Sowers is a true original.

Bringing you 100 years of American music and Davina’s originals, which lend themselves to the American Songbook, the band brings edgy nostalgia to older generations and fresh new music to younger ears. This rollicking quintet is held together by Sowers’ keyboard playing, with acoustic bass, drums, and a spicy trumpet and trombone horn section. Catch this one-of-a-kind live show while they are in town!

Davina Sowers – Piano and Vocals; Zack Lozier – Trumpet and Vocals; Matthew Hanzelka – Trombone; Graydon Peterson – Bass; Connor Hammergren – Drums and Vocals
