“Think of it as Chicago’s answer to the fluid, jazzy musically challenging hip-hop of The Roots...” - Chicago Tribune

“For hip-hop fans who’ve had their fill of urban grit and flashy bling, the innovative rhymes of The J. Davis Trio might be your thing. Intertwined with soul and jazz, These Things Happen is a laid-back, beat-laden record featuring cool horns and emotive strings that complement the truly awesome rhymes perfectly. - Illinois Entertainer

Stalwarts of the Chicago music scene, The J. Davis Trio’s latest album, These Things Happen, features their ever evolving blend of hip hop and garage-jazz with big beats. The band is known for their crisp performances and has shared stages with The Roots, M’shelle N’degleocello, Ozomatli, Reuben Wilson, De La Soul, Maceo Parker, Norah Jones, Groove Collective, Talib Kweli, Shinehead, The Greyboy Allstars, Karl Denson, The Pharcyde, Black Eyed Peas, Tortoise, Living Colour, Poi Dog Pondering, and Modeski, Martin and Wood among many others.

The J. Davis Trio is fronted by vocalist/multi-percussionist Stuart, and backed by bassist Flav-R-Ice, drummer The Planet and trumpeter Benjamin Pendulum. These Things Happen brings power and precision together with grace and beauty. Big beats join with trumpets, violins, vibraphones, Rhodes pianos, congas and Stuart’s smart lyrics to create their signature sound, an idiosyncratic mix of hip hop, jazz and soul.
