Miles Jaye Davis, is named after
the legendary trumpeter Miles Davis
and, like his namesake, he dares to be
different. After
a childhood devoted to the violin,
Miles Jaye went on to study at the
Brooklyn Conservatory of Music, the
Saratoga School of Orchestral Studies
and Brooklyn College. He spent five
years in the Air force, a stint which
gave him the opportunity to sign in the
military’s Top 40 Band. Upon his re­
turn to civilian life, Miles, who had by
then mastered electric violin, hooked
up with jazz guitarist Eric Gale. Check
Out his third latest album titled
"Strong” it’s an explosive album
( of considerable range.
Miles repeatedly demonstrates that
he will not follow the crowd.
