C Davis page 1 by ric Gustafson


To say that music runs in Chip Davis's life, is an understatement. The only child of Louis and Betty Davis started playing piano at age 4. At 6, he composed his first music. His father Louis played saxophone in the Glenn Miller touring band. His father taught him music theory and was his main teacher. His mother Betty played trombone in the NBC Symphony.
In college, Davis went to the University of Michigan and their famed music school. He sang in the glee club and played drums in the marching band. His friends listened to Motown and British rock bands. Davis listened to classical music.
Chip Davis's life changed when he joined the Norman Luboff Choir. He was impressed by Luboff's musical appreciation and experimenting with music. Davis's life again changed greatly when he came to Omaha in the early 1970's. He became a musical director and then met some men from Sound Recorders. Chip Davis's life would never be the same.
