His sophomore release Coming Up For Air was produced by the legendary Peter Frampton (Davy already has a recognizable style. Hes definitely the gunslinger guitarist of the 21st century,- Peter Frampton), with subsequent tours seeing him supporting and sharing the stage with acts such as Jeff Beck, The Who, Joe Bonamassa, Kid Rock, Lynyrd Skynyrd, George Thorogood, Brian Setzer, the Sammy Hagar-fronted supergroup Chickenfoot, and guitar hero Joe Satriani who called Davy My favorite modern Bluesman.Knowles has several top-5 Billboard Blues charting albums under his belt, high profile TV appearances (Jimmy Kimmel Live and CBS Good Morning America among others), and has been praised with high accolades from heroes and press alike - but its not just the music industry who has taken note. Knowles was also the very first artist in history to perform live to the International Space Station directly from mission control in Houston TX, and has had his music taken to the Space Station by two astronauts, Nicole Stott and Ron Garan, on their missions orbiting Earth.In November of 2025 Davy was awarded the title of Global Ambassador by his native country, The Isle of Man, in recognition of his success as a Manx-born musician on the global stage.Whether spending an evening onstage armed with just an acoustic guitar, or wielding his well worn and trusty Telecaster while fronting his blues/rock trio - and at any point in between the two - Davy Knowles is a versatile and formidable songwriter and musician.ALTERNATIVE ZEN BLUES TRIALComprised of Christopher Watkins (Preacher Boy), Etienne David Franc (Papiba The Alternative Zen Blues Trial is an improvisational power trio with a DNA string equal parts Band of Gypsys, R.L Burnside, and Johnny Winter. The band cooks down its telegraphic drum-bass-guitar musicality with rough-hewn vocals and a street-zen lyrical style to extract their signature brand of blackstrap funk.
