Bio

28 years young.. Margeaux Davis has a sweet, friendly spirit, and this girl can groove! Familiar with the stage, Margeaux is a blast to watch, on and off the mic. Born and raised on the south side of Minneapolis. she is fully identifiable: “jazzy… Hip Hop Soul – Etta James meets J. Dilla”. Margeaux is what you call the “Black Sheep” of her family. No one is musically inclined in her family, so she gets her musical gift from listening to all the greats as a child.


Some artists inject their stage show with interplay from fellow band mates, , . She has experience as a stage actor (Broadway Production RENT January 2010 At The Lab Theater with Paris Bennett and Jamecia Bennett ), she won best female R&B vocal 2010 (First Ave), she was nominated for best female R&B vocal 2011, 2012 2013 and she was invited to sing The National Anthem for the 2011 2012, 2013 MN Timber Wolves.

Also Was Invited to perform at the "Minneapolis Black Music Awards" At The Pantages Theater July 2011. Where Ann Nesby, Next, Prince, Alexandre O'Neal, Auburn and many more were recognized...


Margeaux was asked to be a part of a historic event Aug 2011 for the great Desmond Tutu's arrival in Minneapolis that was held at the Minneapolis Community Technical College where Keith Ellison represented her.


Pamela Rollins( Director of 2011/2012 Stage Play) "The Devil Didn't Raise You" Margeaux Played "Momma Bea". An inspirational drama about an Aunt who raised her sister kids after her tragic overdose 10 years before. One is strung out on drugs, the other is running around with a known pimp. A cousin who looks up to Sharon finds that sometimes trying to be like someone can lead you in the wrong direction. This play shows how life takes them through trials and tribulations and shows how they are brought back to the goodness of the Lord. (Momma Bea's Role-Back in the day church goer, saved with much humor)


Recently Finished the Production RAG TIME at “Park Square Theater” Jan-Feb 2012 (Director Gary Gisselman)

Margeaux's Memo 

"When I wake up..in the morning When I lie down at night

the only thing I can think about is singing.. Music.. .. Entertaining.. People 

I get a high when I am on that stage ..

It's my sanctuary 

It's my calm in the mist of the storm 

It ain't easy.. And I understand that other millions of people trying to make it ..

It's crabs in a bucket,,everybody wants to see you doing well.. Just not better than them.. 

I've been told I look to ethnic.. I m too fat.. You'll never make it in this industry because you're over weight.. 

Hell let's face it ..Adele said it best.. You know I make music for your ears not your eyes.. So visualize that 

What a statement powerful I understand that I've picked one of the hardest industries to break into .. 

I understand that I may get Hated on for being a plus size women., 

I realize that I don't come from a musical family .. And sometimes that alone is against me.. But instead of focusing on the cons..

Let's focus on the pros 

I make music that makes people feel good about themselves ,I make music for your soul,I make music to make you think. About life in general .. The beauty in it.. 

Music is probably the only thing that doesn't separate us as human beins 

Music is universal .. And it's the only thing that unites us 

I understand that it's very difficult .. But you know something..life in general is difficult and hard ..

but it's not impossible.. That last word alone Impossible is

I'm possible I've practiced the art of timing I can show you way better than I could ever tell you.. I'm ready .. It's time And It's my time"
