Mikaela Davis with special guest Sean Thompson's Weird Ears

Details

Five years since her debut album Delivery, Mikaela Davis has moved away from her hometown of Rochester, shared the stage with the likes of Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Christian McBride, Bon Iver, Lake Street Dive and Circles Around the Sun and entered a new decade. But it?s the ever-evolving relationships between her closest friends and bandmates that has propelled the Hudson Valley-based artist onto her new album And Southern Star??a truly collaborative effort that ruminates on the choices we make, and the people we always come back to. Sean Thompson?s Weird Ears? 2019 acclaimed ?Time Has Grown a Raspberry? EP and his 2022 debut album introduced us to Thompson?s singular songwriting, with its barreling Dead-esque boogies and lived-in country rock. Hailing from Nashville and praised by everyone from Aquarium Drunkard to MOJO, Thompson is a coveted guitar slinger who has played with Erin Rae, Spencer Cullum and Caitlin Rose.
