Drummer/composer Jeff Davis, known as the “propulsive force” behind a host New York mainstays including Tony Malaby, Tim Berne, Kirk Knuffke, and Anna Webber. A mainstay and in-demand drummer on the creative NYC music scene, Jeff Davis is a passionate improviser at the drum set.  A powerful performer and compelling composer, Davis has contributed as a sideman to a great number of important music projects, and has performed with such artists as Chris Speed, Ralph Alessi, Ben Monder, Marc Ducret, and Mark Helias. With his band Catchfoot, Davis has convened a new electro-acoustic quintet of longtime kindred spirits, whose years of experience together yields a rare degree of sympathetic interplay and textural volatility.

“Mr. Davis, a drummer and composer of sure footing but adventurous inclination.” (Nate Chinen, The New York Times)
