Shenandoah Davis (USA) w/ Nadia Reid & Luckless

The Seattle, WA, USA based musician Shenandoah Davis will be coming to New Zealand in 2012 as part of her world tour supporting her new record, The Company We Keep.

Drawing inspiration from the Chopin and Debussy of her childhood piano lessons right alongside with the chanteuses of the 1930s and more eclectic modern acts such as Antony & The Johnsons, Owen Pallett, and Van Dyke Parks, Shenandoah Davis's tiny masterpieces have been branded everything from parlour music to new folk to orchestral pop.

Davis self-released her sophomore effort "The Company We Keep" in August, which Don Yates of KEXP called "an often-gorgeous set of classical-influenced avant-pop with dynamic, intricate arrangements" and Cory Frye of the Corvallis Gazette-Times labeled as "an album wrapped in brittle crimsons and delicate browns, wrought with tension and a slightly fractured whimsy." The record was picked up by radio stations across the country and abroad, quickly becoming one of the Top 3 Self-Released Records on the CMJ charts, and has already made its appearance on several end-of-year Top Ten lists.

She has recently completed a 16-week tour of the United States, and will be touring in New Zealand during February and March where she will be joined by multi-instrumentalists Ethan Demerest (drums, guitar) and Stelth Ulvang (accordion, clarinet), as well as select dates with Kate Uhe on cello (City Oh Sigh, St. Rupertsberg).
