With a fuller sound than a solo acoustic singer/songwriter but cleaner and more subtly expressive than a full band, TWO is the essential distillation of what has become contemporary music's standard instrumentation, drums and guitar.

It works marvelously well largely because in the hands of strong rhythmic artists the interplay of beat and counter beat sustains a very strong emotional rhythm without the watering down by extraneous instruments. That which is emotional in the music has less to compete with.

TWO (Rick Sirota/Mark Davis) are two such musicians. Sirota's guitar and voice bring the melodic and harmonic drive while Davis' drums bring the tension and emotional punch that takes the music that one step farther. TWO is a must see!

Mark Davis is a soft-spoken man full of rhythm and good ideas. Born in D.C. and raised in New Jersey he is a gentle giant of a musician. Classically trained, Mark began his studies at eight and by ten began to display his penchant for the eclectic, developing a deep love of jazz and traditional British music. It has been said often by his musical friends that Mark "likes to color outside the lines." In 1978 while in high school he performed at the White House as the featured percussionist for the Shenandoah Conservatory Orchestra. , Mark is currently the Asst. Dir. of a human services agency, a sector he has worked in for many years doing, among other things music therapy for patients with mental health disorders and other disabilities. He has a Bachelors degree in sociology and a major interest in ethno-musicology and has also worked as a freelance music journalist and contributing editor for Dirty Linen Magazine and the Bethlehem Star Newspaper
