Elder Durward Davis Durward Davis is a native of Los Angeles California. His spirit, presence, and stature are both undeniable, but somehow he has managed to stay hidden from the world’s stage until now. Durward’s love and fascination with music was encouraged by his father who overheard him singing a Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes commercial at the age of six. His father was amazed at his great talent and persuaded Durward to sing in an upcoming worship service at their local church. Durward has been singing ever since. His signature gift has certainly made room for him. Durward has provided background vocals for Pattie Labelle’s, Miss Patti’s Christmas Project, TV One’s The Gospel of Music, The Major Feature Film “Bobby”, as well as jingles and voice-overs for commercials. He has shared the same stage with some of music’s greatest names, not limited to but including Kim Burrell, Wayman Tisdale, Gospel Duo Mary-Mary, Beverly Crawford, Judith McAllister, Donnie McClurkin, Yolanda Adams, Sandi Patti, Kirk Franklin, Fred Hammond and Shirley Caesar to name a few.
