About Greg Cahill
Greg Davis began his music career in Ft. Worth Texas playing bluegrass with his brother (faimed bluegrass guitarist) Brad Davis. After coming of age Greg made the move to Nashville to settle as a professional musician. Greg debuted his banjo talents on the recent hit single "Only In America" - recorded by Brooks and Dunn. Greg has performed with the McCarter Sisters, Jon Randall, Jerry Douglas, Marty Stuart, EmmyLou Harris, and most recently with the acclaimed Sam Bush Band. Greg's fresh and exciting banjo style propels this band and his vocal harmonies blend perfectly with (brother) Brad's lead voice as only two brother's can. Greg's turbo-charged seven-string banjo is blazing trails in neo bluegrass music with his new act WhiteWater. What began as a "fun gig" for four of Nashville's top sidemen looking for a "creative outlet" when they were not working with major country acts has recently come to a full rolling boil with their Raisin' Cain Records release of wHITE wATER's project "No Gold On The Highway." wHITE wATER's lead guitar player and singer, Brad Davis, explains "I have spent the last ten years on the road and in the studio with Marty Stuart. While I loved the gig with Marty, I missed playing acoustic music and I missed performing my own material. wHITE wATER was originally formed so that I could occasionally get creative and have my acoustic fix when I wasn't out on tour with Marty. I never imagined that the band would take off like it has and I never dreamed that it would turn into my full time gig."
