Governor Davis & The Blues Ambassadors is a 4-piece blues -- injected with soul/R'nB/rock influences -- outfit based in central Indiana. Formed in January '91, the act is comprised of Governor (yes, that's his real name) Davis on guitar and lead vocals, Steve Robbins on guitar/mandolin/vocals, Ron 'RC' Coffman on drums and James 'Jimmy V' Valdez on bass and vocals. Their repertoire includes original music written by Governor, Steve and Jimmy, as well as blues covers ranging from John Lee Hooker to BB King.
