Trumpetist

Drummer and composer Quincy Davis brings his poignant work Empathy Suite to Dizzy’s Club. The events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and the tragic loss of George Floyd inspired Davis to create a piece reflecting the power of compassion and empathy. Featuring innovative melodies and powerful lyrics, Empathy Suite captures different facets of empathy, drawing inspiration from Maya Angelou, Kobe Bryant, Lao Tzu, the Dalai Lama, and other icons. This performance is made possible through grant funding from the University of North Texas Initiative for the Advancement of the Arts.
