BACKSTORY
Davey started playing guitar when he was 12 years old and performing at his annual church coffee house in his high school years. Music was never the priority, though, as he had pursued playing college football since age 3. He found his home at the University of Rhode Island (URI) as the punter and placeholder for 4 seasons from 2019 to 2022. But he never lost his passion for music; it was just on hold until he graduated from URI in December of 2022 with a B.S. in Marketing and took his shot at the NFL, punting for 4 NFL teams at his Pro Day in March of 2023. Fast-forward to 2024, and Davey has found his second calling with music in songwriting, drawing inspiration from some of his favorite artists like Alice in Chains, Three Days Grace, Daughtry, Morgan Wallen, and more. On TikTok and other social media platforms, Davey has amassed hundreds of thousands of followers, millions of views, and a community of passionate rock and grunge fans who are excited for him to continue his music journey in 2026.
