Redwood City musician Garrick Davis is organizing and performing at Zach Fest '24, an April 28 concert in memory of his son, Zach Davis-Price, that will also raise funds for local nonprofits.
Some of you already know about the current state of affairs coming up for me, which include the new music I'm producing called “The Dignity Project” that will eventually be released as a full album but will be incrementally released as singles over the next few months, and then there is the big ...

I was told in 2005, when I was doing well and on the rise here as a music artist in the beautiful Bay Area that I need to go elsewhere in the world to make it happen better. I started making plans but among other things didn’t want to leave my son like that.
A few years later I was told by a well known and highly regarded that I need to go elsewhere in the world to make a good go at my career. He said a lot of well known artists live in the Bay Area but rarely work here.
I still wasn’t ready.
There are finally 2-1/2 months before I put that advice into action. Thanks to my wife’s dream of going back to her home country, I’m finally getting the opportunity to build my career and life elsewhere. Will I be missed? I doubt it, artistically speaking.
I’ve able to do some really amazing things here in the Bay Area. Consistent growth as an artist, hire and work with some world class musicians, play many, many great shows over the years, watch my son Zach become a really great artist and monster keyboardist before his passing at the end of 2020.
The most important thing is that I have been able to stay healthy, and not necessarily “road worn” physically. That will serve me well as I move forward. Life has hit me hard in other ways as it does to all of us. I’m going to Europe as a more “complete” package than I would have earlier in life, plus I actually officially have a home to grow from!
But I have some good thing’s to do first before I go:
1) Zach Fest '24 Community Benefit Concert to raise money for two nonprofit charities and play music in the beautiful old Fox Theatre RWC. April 27, 2024
2) Finish a new body of music work I am calling - “The Dignity Project”. I hope you all will stay tuned on this process and the story behind it of which I will attempt to publish a brief book about the songs, sort of a “World Blues” philosophy. Why not? I’m starting to love writing anyway!

“Sometimes darkness can show us the light”, he says.
I wish to do is carry Zach’s light of love onward in music and service!

This is from a performance October 20, 2019. We've been playing this song for quite some time and it has developed into a song to open a show with. It is fro...
Friends, there are few things I have experienced that touched my heart more deeply than the years of taking part in watching and helping to nurture my son, Zach play and create music.
I learned a lot and was inspired by his love for music. Sometimes I fear the current and next steps in this lifelong journey I have been on well before Zach was born. But Zach was an old soul and I have always been an open book to get better as a musician and artist.
In fact, when Zach began discovering other bands in the world I always asked him what he thought about the guitar players. I hoped that when my own time was up that he might have finally considered me his favorite guitarist! Haha! Truly a running joke but it added fuel to my fire!
I hope you watch this video and really take it in. It’s from the very last time we played at The Lost Church in San Francisco May 16, 2014. It really was a gorgeous musical moment.
The owner didn’t like the fact that I set up my electric rig, which was actually only for this song, since we were “opening” the show for another artist and it took a little extra time to set up.
“Unbelieved”(in denial)to me at the time, Zach was struggling with his addiction. He was also working three jobs. He was exhausted the whole time. I wanted to believe he just needed sleep.
I only mention this fact because of how proud I am for the fight Zach waged against his addiction. A fight not everyone wins. But to know he established a positive presence in the Recovery Community using music as a tool for connection and comfort and his personal healing.
This is a cornerstone reason I hope to honor Zach with this upcoming inaugural Zach Fest Memorial Concert and 30th Birthday Celebration April 2 at the Big Fox in Redwood City.
Please attend and support this event, which will honor Zach's spirit, commitment to family and friends, and his passion for life and love for live music. Please join us!! Tickets are available in nline only.
