    Mr. Davis is a true genius. Artistically and technically gifted far, far beyond his years. Can’t wait to see where he goes from here.

    Although the John Mayer influences are pretty clear, you got your own style. I love your phrasing. As Mayer himself said, “you develop your own style when you’re trying to sound like your idols”. Keep the videos coming, they’re 🔥.
