Jason Davis & the New Philosophers

About Me


Jason Davis, a guitarist, producer, and songwriter based in New York, is heralded as one of the leading members of the resurging guitar movement of the 21st century. A Parker Guitars, Emerald Acoustic Guitars, and Randall Amplifiers Endorsement Artist, he is best known in studio and on stage for his maverick guitar styling, melodic/compositional sensibility, and "left-of-center" musical disposition.
Davis' playing and compositions are constantly in the media and in the ears of the world – even though he may not be immediately recognized. He has written and performed music that has appeared on “Saturday Night Live”, “The Tonight Show”, “Access Hollywood”, E!'s “True Hollywood Stories”, and countless others. He composed the theme to Court TV’s “Under Fire” series and has contributed music to the NFL, NBA, ESPN, and Fox Sports to use in all of their game and player coverage. Davis has also performed and shared the stage with such diverse artists as MC Lyte, American Idol’s Clay Aiken, Cee-Lo of the Grammy Award-winning group Gnarls Barkley, The Nixon’s Zac Malloy, and the Grammy Award-nominated Nappy Root.
On any given day, Jason can be found spending time with his lovely wife and children, performing with a menagerie of musical counterparts (including the newly-revised "Jason Davis & the New Philosophers"), constantly swapping out effects on his pedal board, and rethinking ways to take over the world with six strings, a cranked amplifier, and a renegade spirit.
