“Aside from his innate intelligence, Davis writes with emotional insight and a sensitivity that sets him apart. “ – Jon Hoglund, Cabaret Scenes

“When it comes to contemporary songwriting, the obstreperously sizable squad who complain that "they don't write 'em like they used to" have got it seriously wrong. The bracing truth is that they do write 'em very much as the outstanding pop songwriters of the mid-20th century used to.... Prominent among them are Kait Kerrigan and Brian Lowdermilk, Lance Horne, Sam Davis, Michael Patrick Walker, Scott Evan Davis, Georgia Stitt.” – David Finkle, The Huffington Post

“Songwriter Davis has an ear for the classical in his melodies and one for the edginess of the contemporary in his lyrics, and these two seemingly contradictory aspects of his music collide with remarkable ease.” – Andy Propst, Theatermania.com

“An important new songwriter has arrived on the scene.” – NEXT Magazine
