Grammy-Award winning Commerce musician and music producer Brad Davis discusses his recent recording of the "Star-Spangled Banner," in the tradition of Jimi Hendrix' legendary version of the National Anthem.  Brad, who represents Alvarez and Gretsch guitars, performed the "Banner" out of respect and also as a demonstration of his unique guitar techniques.  With new management, Brad expects to have a busier performances schedule in 2021.
