About Me

Get Your Own! | View Slideshow"Millions already know his music. To say he's a prolific songwriter is an understatement. Stephen Allen Davis' list of accomplishments in the songwriting industry is lengthy and enviable. Over 400 of his songs have been recorded, 16 1 songs, including cuts on over 20 gold albums, 14 platinum and 10 multi-platinum albums, and he has been honored with 16 prestigious BMI Awards in Pop, R & B and Country for the most performed songs of the year.Stephen's own story is as wondrous as his songs. At age seventeen he walked into a publisher " Norro Wilson's " office on Nashville's Music Row with guitar in hand and played a few tunes for the guy in charge. The publisher, nonplussed with the songs, decided to pass on Stephen's material. Stephen insisted on playing one last tune before accepting defeat. That last song was "Take Time To Know Her" - and it caught the publisher's ear.Soon the world embraced "Take Time To Know Her" as Percy Sledge took this powerful ballad to the top of the charts selling over two and a half million units worldwide. This early success was just the beginning of a long and brilliant songwriting career for Stephen Allen Davis.Stephen's songs have been cut by many other diverse artists, including Joe Cocker, Diana Ross, the Divinyls, Meatloaf, John Hiatt, Kenny Rogers, Tammy Wynette and Reba McEntire. His most recent Billboard, R&R & Gavin No. 1 cut was the Jo Dee Messina single, "Stand Beside Me."A brilliantly talented singer and performer in his own right, Stephen Allen Davis has recorded an incredible collection of his own songs. The Light Pink Album showcases 14 diverse and unforgettable songs delivered with the passion and depth only revealed by a true artist. The album includes Davis' own emotive delivery of the classic "Take Time To Know Her" that will leave the listener wanting more .. and that's just the first track. Find out why industry executives, artists and songwriters from London to LA have this CD permanently placed in their CD players at home."Now there is the newest addition to his catalog.
