artist info
Black Thunder is the latest album by Seattle-based musician, producer, and engineer Brittany Davis on Loosegroove Records, a label run by Pearl Jam’s Stone Gossard. Featuring Davis on keys and vocals, Evan Flory-Barnes on bass, and D'Vonne Lewis on drums, the Josh Evans-produced offering recalls artists like Nina Simone, Roberta Flack, and Rahsaan Roland Kirk in its immersive, incantatory spirit.
Davis — who has been blind since birth, and also lends her talents to Gossard’s band Painted Shield — arrives at Black Thunder via considerable headwinds. In 2023, she released her debut album, Image Issues, also via Loosegroove Records.
“She is channeling something or someone else,” the producer adds. “Voices, spirits, the divine — something bigger than the room itself. Something more than just the three musicians playing — something older, something deeper.”
With a range of themes from celestial reflections to raw self-exploration, Black Thunder captures Davis's evolution as an artist.
This album is jazz at its core, pushing boundaries and embracing the spirit of improvisation in its purest form.
