Monday, March 10th, 2008 I'm A Coffee Fool If you’re like me and love coffee, you might not want to try the stuff that they are selling at coffeefool.com. Their website warned me that I’d be “ruined” if I tried their brew. It’s
true! I can’t drink anything else now. I’m an official Coffee Fool. I liked the coffee so much that I wrote a song and sent it to Coffee Fool. They posted the tune on their main page, you can hear it if you press the button at the bottom of their home page. Check it out: www.coffeefool.com. |

Grammy award winning artist Brad Davis spent ten years (1992-2002) performing on stage as a member of Marty Stuart’s road band. For the past six years he has played lead acoustic guitar with Earl Scruggs and Friends, and for the past five years he has played lead electric and acoustic guitar with movie actor Billy Bob Thornton’s rock band. He spent two years (2003-2004) as the guitar player for the Sam Bush Band and also performed with John Jorgenson’s Gypsy jazz Quintet in 2005. He occasionally performs with an exciting new bluegrass band, calling themselves "Greenbroke," consisting of Brad Davis, John Cowan, John Moore, and Dennis Caplinger.
Brad has worked for, or recorded with, Willie Nelson, Emmy Lou Harris, Pam Tillis, The Forester Sisters, Tommy Shaw (Styx), David Lee Roth (Van Halen), Sheryl Crow, Sam Bush, Warren Zevon, and The Sweethearts of the Rodeo. He is currently the host of Commerce County Line, a singer/songwriter television program on the iTelevision network (see www.myccl.tv). Additionally, Brad has recorded two album projects featuring Billy Bob Thornton on Mercury Records and has toured both Europe and the United States as the lead guitar player for Billy Bob Thornton’s band. Brad's two solo recordings on FGM Records (http://www.fgmrecords.com/artists/davis.html) "I'm Not Gonna Let My Blues Bring Me Down", and "This World Ain't No Child Anymore" were both released to rave reviews. He also appears on an FGM concert DVD video release "Live in Kansas City" with Cody Kilby and Tim May.
A prolific songwriter Brad has had his songs recorded by various country and bluegrass artists, including country star Tim McGraw (“Ain’t No Angels”). He has played on Marty Stuart’s gold selling album "This Ones Gonna Hurt You", the Marty Stuart "Hit Pack", and Marty’s last MCA recording "The Pilgrim". He played on the soundtrack of Steven Seagal’s "Fire Down Below", and performed music for Billy Bob Thornton’s Miramax releases "Daddy And Them" and "Waking Up In Reno". He also recorded with Sheryl Crow, and others, on the Johnny Cash tribute album "Kindred Spirits", played guitar on Warren Zevon’s final Grammy-winning recording, "The Wind", and was on Sam Bush's Sugar Hill release "King of My World".
A talented guitar instructor and writer, Brad has been a columnist for Flatpicking Guitar Magazine (http://www.flatpick.com/) since 1996 and is currently Takamine’s main guitar clinician, conducting dozens of music store clinics for Takamine each year (http://www.takamine.com/?fa=davisclinics).
