237 - Ward Davis
In episode 237 of “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine, host James Patrick Regan speaks with singer, songwriter and guitarist Ward Davis. In their conversation Ward discusses where he currently lives, Hartsville Tennessee and where he grew up Arkansas and starting on the piano at 6 years old and moving to guitar at 14 after losing at the county fair talent show to a guitar player and then started playing jamborees around the area he lived in. Ward tells us about the shows he’s doing now supporting Cody Jinks with his band and his own shows. Ward tells us about his guitars, Larrivee’s outfitted with either Fishman or L.R. Baggs pickups and he discusses his telecaster’s built by 9 Point Guitars in Louisiana. Ward discusses how he got hooked up with Cody Jinks in the first place and how he got his songs in front of Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard and gives us a lesson in the economics of songwriting. Ward talks about using an alias (Dusty Manchester) at writers rounds to avoid the radius clause. Ward tells us about his new album “Here I Am” which comes out in February and he tells us about working with Brent Mason, Eddie Bayers among others and landing tracks on the Landman TV series. Ward describes why he chose to be on a label as opposed to releasing his album independently. Ward discusses his upcoming tour schedule after the holidays. Finally Ward tells us about collecting historical documents and books from the 1800’s and his love of thrift stores and his relationships and sobriety.
