Jack Davey (The girl) and Brook D'leau (The guy), better know as eclectic soul/electro duo J*Davey, have been selected among three other bands by MTV and Garnier Fructis to participate in I WANT MY MUSIC ON MTV! contest. The winner of this innovative promotion will perform at the 2009 mtvU WOODIE AWARDS in November and have their music added to the music network’s video rotation. Each participating voter stands the chance of winning an all-inclusive, VIP trip for two to New York City where they will attend the awards and rub shoulders along with the winners of the competition. By definition, a “breakthrough sound” must ascend the confines of cliché labels and genres. If you're unfamiliar with J*Davey's music you need to get familiar ASAP. I became a fan of their's last fall after hearing their THE BEAUTY IN DISTORTION/THE LAND OF THE LOST EP (Dopeness people, straight dopeness!). Their fusion of electro synths, funk and jazz rhythms topped by soulful lyricism, which is also conveyed through their personal style, makes for a band that I always want to check for and you should, too.
