DAVIS RAINES ___________________________ Award-winning singer/songwriter and former Death Row prison guard Davis Raines is now touring in support of his new CD, Going to Montgomery. The acclaimed Nashville artist has performed across North America and Europe, released award-winning CDs, and had his songs recorded by some of music’s greatest. His songs are impeccably crafted, his performances legendary, and his music springs from the roots of the post-modern American South. Raines’ tunes have been recorded by Kenny Rogers, Pam Tillis, Pat Green, and Walt Wilkins and the Mystiqueros, to name only a few. He’s performed at SXSW, The Austin City Limits Music Festival, Tin Pan South, Country Night in Bern, Switzerland, Folk Alliance, Woodsongs, and other high-profile venues across the USA. He’s featured in concert on two commercially released DVDs and is a primary subject of the upcoming documentary film The Burden of Memory. WHAT THEY SAY “Raines brings an uncommon intelligence and perspective to songwriting.” Bill Miller, The Blue Chip Radio Report “ . . . vivid pictures that you can’t get out of your head.” Country Standard Time “ . . . a killer who’s yet to get his due, but it’s coming.” Puremusic.com
