James Davis Quintet to play
Underground at Red Sea on May 14

The Chicago-based James Davis Quintet is coming to St. Louis on Wednesday, May 14 to perform at the Underground @ Red Sea, 6511 Delmar in the University City Loop.

The band includes leader James Davis (pictured) on trumpet, Caroline Davis on saxophone, keyboard player Sean McCluskey, bassist Jeff Greene and drummer Jon Deitemyer. They're hitting the road to promote their debut CD Angles of Refraction, "making our way down to TX and back," says Davis via email. The trumpeter earned his master's degree from the storied jazz program at the University of North Texas, and currently is on faculty at Triton College in River Grove, IL as director of the school's jazz band.
