A salty and profound rock musician, Ali Davis is a guitarist and songwriter out of Massachusetts. Since 1982, she has been a part of several bands in the eighties and nineties playing at bars and clubs from western Massachusetts through Boston. Ali’s musical styles have evolved from Folk and Classical beginnings to Hard Rock (hair band days—got to love the 80’s!) and on to New Age and emotionally driven instrumentals. Her latest works are wicked cool and explore deep dark passages that can evoke haunting feelings of suspense.
