Triad Arts with David Ford Larry Davis Live!June 12, 2012Larry G. Davis is one of those rare individuals with both musical and athletic gifts that propelled him to the tops ranks in both fields. He played professional baseball for the Chicago Cubs and the Washington Senators before leaving that world behind to pursue his dream of becoming a musician. After saying goodbye to teammates like the great Ernie Banks, Larry went on to become a sought-after studio musician in Nashville, rubbing elbows with a veritable Who’s Who list of greats in that industry including Chet Atkins, the creator of the Nashville Sound.
Over the decades Larry has absorbed a variety of musical styles including classical, bluegrass, jazz, and mariachi just to name a few. You can hear Larry jump from Bach to bossa nova live in recital at the High Point Library on Saturday, June 16, from 2:00pm to 3:30pm. Larry made the trip to WFDD from his home on Ridges Mountain in Randolph County to talk with David about the music he loves, and share a few songs.
Tune in Friday afternoon at 1:00pm for Larry Davis Live from Studio A during Triad Arts Up Close.
