Stephanie Davis
Western Music & Cowboy Songs

Stephanie Davis is a skilled songwriter who has made a pretty fair living for herself writing songs for others to record. After years of success in Nashville, Davis bailed out and went back to Montana where she could write songs to satisfy her heart, rather than writing songs simply for the buck.
For the past several years, she has been one of the most popular performers at the Elko Cowboy Poetry Gathering. This likeable woman knows how to write and perform songs that reach the souls of the real people of the west. She is a multi-talented performer, playing guitar, outstanding fiddle, and singing in her lovely, gentle, melodic alto.
On this album, Davis performs several of her "for the soul" songs. Those songs are "Give A Little Bit Back," "The Gift," "Lone Star Swing," "Prairie Lullabye," "The Diamond O," "Saturday Night At The Whitebird School," "Big Sky Bounce," and "Wolves." Also on this recording are Cindy Walker's "Salt River Valley," and the Neuman/Darby collaboration, "River of No Return," made famous by the 1954 movie of the same name.
Davis produced this album with Texan Rich O'Brien, who has produced albums for many western singers and is a top-of-the-world guitar player himself. In his introduction to this album, O'Brien describes Davis as "a western treasure."
We echo that opinion. Among all the quality western music performers garnering attention these days, Davis is simply "the shiniest penny in the jar."
River of No Return is a true western album by a true western woman. You have to own this one.
