LEAD GUITARIST
 Ron is lead guitarist and lead male
vocalist. He is a natural entertainer who
has years of experience in many venues
across the Southeast. His enthusiasm is
contagious---he truly loves playing and
loves interacting with the audience. His
versatility in musical styles is impressive
and entertaining, as he performs Rock and
Roll, Country, Blues, Beach, Ballads and
Easy Listening, all with his natural
energetic style and passion for performing.
His great vocals, impressive guitar
abilities and hot solos contribute a
professionalism that comes through during
every band performance.
LEAD VOCALS
 As lead female vocalist, Kathy’s high energy
and incredible vocal talent draw an
audience in and wows them. She truly enjoys
interacting with the audience and is
definitely at ease with a crowd. Kathy first
began singing gospel in church as a child,
and was often told that she sang too loud
----it seemed only natural that she moved on
to Rock and Roll. She has great pipes, but
her vocal range lends versatility to the
band as she is an accomplished singer of
Jazz Standards, Blues, Country, and of
course Rock and Roll. Not many chicks can
sing like this!
KEYBOARDS/STRINGS/PIANO
 Donna is Versatility Plus for the band, from
keyboards (piano, synth, horn and string
parts) to her bluesy organ, fiddle, and
mandolin fills, as well as backup vocals.
This versatility and her musical focus are
true assets for any variety band. Donna has
played music since early childhood, starting
with classical piano and progressing to Rock
and Roll, as she played in several bands
over the last ten years. She and husband Ron
Davis, the lead guitarist of Davis and
Messina, both have a true passion for music
that is shared with friends and family, and
of course with the Davis and Messina Band.
DRUMS
 Dave has been playing drums since he was
about four years old. Over the years Dave
has played in various cover bands ranging
from blues, pop and country as well as
participating in original songwriting
bands. He has been perfecting his technique
and branching out into percussion as well as
conventional drumming. His rock solid beat
is the backbone of the Davis Messina Band
and the variety that the band performs shows
off Dave’s drumming versatility from the
finesse of the brushes to full out power
drumming.
BASS GUITAR
 The “Funk-Meister” of the band is Lance
Youngquist, on bass. He also contributes
with back-up vocals. Lance has played bass
for many years and has been in several bands
ranging from blues bands to praise bands.
He has often been called on to perform as a
guest player for local venues covering a
wide variety of material. His diligence to
detail and work ethic has resulted in Lance
being one of the most versatile players in
the area with his ability to play many
various musical styles. Together, Lance on
bass and Dave on drums give strong unity to
the groove of Davis and Messina Band ---this
is one of the main reasons that this is such
a great dance band.
SAXOPHONE
 Eddie is a regular guest player who plays
often with Davis and Messina Band, adding a
new dimension of sound and excitement with
his awesome saxophone talent. He also
expands the bands repertoire with his
soulful lead vocals as well as
keyboards---Eddie extends the band to the
incredible versatility of three lead
vocalists and two keyboard players. His
soaring saxophone solos are guaranteed crowd
pleasers. Eddie is an original member of the
well known Nantucket band---this band still
performs, and he is also a member of other
local groups. Eddie’s passion for music is
obvious.
