LIVE MUSIC: Davin McCoy and The Coming Attractions return to JUMP KITCHEN, Woodstock

Davin McCoy and The Coming Attractions return for another blowout night of music!!! Come spend the evening with this Atlanta-based singer songwriter artist and his amazing band, who pack the house every time they play!
As an 8 year old, Davin McCoy would whistle “Sittin on the Dock of the Bay” in his sleep. The well of creative passion was beginning to seep. Born in Albany, GA and raised in separate households, Davin’s inherent gift and calling for music would finally manifest at age 12, when he found the guitar. Shortly thereafter, Davin began writing his own songs—musical emotion and expression akin to Cat Stevens, Van Morrison and of course, Otis Redding. At 21, Davin teamed up with Clay Cook (John Mayer, Shawn Mullins, Zach Brown, Marshall Tucker) to record his first full length musical effort 40 Days From Friday. Unyielding to fear and eager for experience, Davin quickly shipped off to London where he would take up a publishing deal and continue to write and perform. Davin’s music would take him over oceans and across continents, from London to L.A., and to Florida via New York. Perhaps in the realization of his roots, Davin returned to Georgia, where parallel destinies converged and a long overdue meeting took place with music legend Davis Causey (Sea Level, Allman Bros.). Recording sessions with Causey led to the creation of So Good, So Cruel, Davin’s second album, featuring the talents of masters and former Sea Level band mates Randall Bramblett and Chuck Leavell (Allman Bros, Rolling Stones, Sea Level) along with a borrowed Widespread Panic horn section. Together with Casey Crogan on the drums, Davin and company made magic in the studio. Calling on every influence available, there was never an attempt to hide where the bodies in this collection of sure to be classic, timeless songs were buried. Stay tuned... his third album, Whiskey Sexy, is about to be released, produced by Blank Recordings, and oh the stories it will tell!
