Linda Davis hosted the first ever DRX Artist showcase at Nashville’s Famous 3rd and Lindsley Bar & Grill.
A dedicated career woman, consummate entertainer, inspirational motivator, and devoted wife and mother are just a few ways to describe Grammy winning singer/songwriter Linda Davis. She has built a reputation as a world-class entertainer and is considered one of the best female vocalists in the business by some of her most well-known peers.
Through the years, Davis has played to sold-out crowds with the likes of Garth Brooks, George Strait, Reba McEntire and Kenny Rogers just to name a few. Kenny Rogers, a long-time friend and fan proclaims, "In this business, there are people who can sing and there are singers. Linda Davis is absolutely one of the best singers in the business. I defy you to find anyone who's ever worked with her or heard her sing to disagree with that statement. She is the best."
Davis continues her role as National VP and Nashville Spokesperson for the Muscular Dystrophy Association as well as a number of other philanthropic endeavors. "You have to always give back," she says.
Through her music, motivational messages, inspiration, and encouragement to anyone who crosses her path, giving back is what Davis seems to do best. "I'm a glass half-full kind of girl. I can see the future and I can't wait," Davis said.
