ROB DAVIS

The guitarist for UK rock group Mud, Rob Davis is a Grammy-award-winning, all round master of music. In demand as a writer and producer, Rob has worked with the cream of British and American songwriters and artists. He is equally adept at turning an instrumental dance groove into a FM-friendly anthem or creating pop classics from scratch.

In 2000, Rob Davis wrote the record phenomenon of the year – Spiller’s If This Ain’t Love. He then trumped it with the boundary crossing pop single of the year – Kylie’s ‘Can’t Get You Out Of My Head’, co-written & co-produced with Cathy Dennis, which went to No.1 in over 25 countries and earned them three Ivor Novello awards: most performed, best international, and best dance song.

An accomplished producer, guitarist and keyboard player, Rob also saw his song ‘I Need A Miracle’ for Fragma hit the No.1 spot, and added the top line to the underground instrumental sleeper ‘Right On’ by Silicone Soul. He co-wrote the hits ‘Get Over You’ for Sophie Ellis Bextor (No 2), ‘When I Lost You’ for Sarah Whatmore (No 6), and solely wrote ‘Down Boy’ for Holly Valance (No2).

Introduced to dance music in the late 80s by Paul Oakenfold, he co-produced with the legendary DJ the early Ibiza anthem and worldwide Number 1 dance hit ‘Jibaro’ by Elektra. He then went on to write and co-produce the beautiful ‘Joy & Heartbreak’ for Movement 98 and the huge ‘Not Over Yet’ for Grace, which was recently recorded and released by The Klaxons.
