Hello —

I’m Davis Whitwell. Lover of all things music, fashion, social media, Mississippi sunsets, and travel.

Based in London, UK.

About me —

 

As a born and raised Mississippian, music has always been the core of everything around me.

Music was my first great love — a love that began with a Nanci Griffith CD that I couldn’t fall asleep without. As a child, this love was shown by a lively six-year-old Davis hosting concerts for her entire family and standing as close to the stage as possible while watching any live band. As I got older, I began to write my own music and found singing and songwriting to be the best form of expression.

This love continues in all aspects of my life. Whether I’m following Harry Styles on tour or rambling to my friends about my favourite pop star of the week, music is the most consistent piece of me. I always knew I wanted to work in the music industry, and once I began my IMC courses at Ole Miss, I became enthralled by the world of communications and how it works hand-in-hand with artists in the music industry.

I am passionate about written and visual communication in the world of music and entertainment. As an undergraduate, I focused on written communication before expanding my education to visual communication as a postgraduate. For my dissertation, I conducted extensive research on personal branding strategies and visual communication used by musicians to determine how visuals contribute to their brand identity and impact their fan connections.
