Loren Davidson calls himself an “escape artist.” This has nothing to do with strait jackets and piranha-filled tanks. Loren’s art inspires and encourages others to escape from whatever is bringing them stress in their daily lives by exploring visions of life as it could be, sitting on a warm beach with a cold drink, even if only in their imagination. It’s music with tropical attitude, a virtual vacation to Key West and other points south, warm, and relaxing.
Loren’s newest album, Every Day’s a Holiday, shows how to take whatever’s going on in your life—bad days at work, relationship issues, or stress-inducing traffic - make the best of it, and reduce the stress in it with a little bit of “tropical attitude.”
The title song looks at how getting laid off can be a blessing in disguise - is it misfortune, or an extended vacation? If you’re going to be out of work for a while, take the opportunity to escape defining yourself by your job title and to treat the time away from work as a series of holidays.
When something happens that you don’t understand—you get that “Dear John/Jane” letter and wake up hungover in a strange hotel, for instance, with no recollection of how you got there - “Clueless in Key Largo” helps you realize that you can always make the best of what life has thrown you.
A Loren Davidson concert is like taking a mini-vacation at a moment’s notice. No need to make reservations or go through security; just walk in, sit down, and be transported to the Paradise in your own mind. It’s like therapy, only cheaper and lots more fun. Loren will show you how to make lemonade out of your lemons and margaritas out of your limes.
Loren currently lives, works, and plays in the San Francisco Bay Area.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Loren Davidson with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Every Day's a Holiday" “Every Day's a Holiday” is an entertaining trop rock album from beach-dweller and singer/songwriter Loren Davidson. The album is filled with upbeat, fun lyrics and a great island feel by way of steel drums, shakers, and horns. Davidson's third release is true to the trop rock precedent set by Jimmy Buffett. The songs on this album center around overcoming life's obstacles and learning to relax instead of feeling overwhelmed. Davidson's lyrics are positive, clever, and they involve a good deal of beach imagery, island metaphors, and the enjoyment of an alcoholic beverage. “Every Day's a Holiday” is well-produced and the album sounds very clean and professionally done. “Going Coastal” is a play on the phrase “going postal”, and through quirky lyrics, offers an alternative to it – namely, getting “cured by a week by the sea.” “I Need a Weekend (to Recover From My Weekend)” is another humorous track about hangovers, having the case of the Mondays, and the instinct to throw your boss out the window. Overall, Loren Davidson has crafted an immensely entertaining album about how a day on the beach can alleviate the tensions and challenges of every day life. Fans of trop rock, throw on a Hawaiian shirt and give this album a listen.-Chris & the RadioIndy.com Review Team |
