Biography:

Born in Hollywood, CA in 1961, Davol moved to Colorado when he was seven and has spent most of his life in the Rocky Mountain state. His musical side was first expressed through the trumpet. When he was thirteen, he grew bored with the fact that his primary instrument was monophonic and shifted over to classical piano. That was followed by high school exposure to synthesizers and jazz, harpsichord studies in college and heavy influence and inspiration from the music of Claud Debussy, Jean-Michel Jarre, Andreas Vollenweider and Tangerine Dream.

I took a little music theory in high school, but never ventured to write my own music. I would listen to a lot of things and say to myself That's interesting, but they should have done this differently here. I got a Macintosh and some MIDI sequencing software for my home studio and it was like a door opened inside me on this whole world of experimentation where you can immediately find out what the experiment yields. At that point all these ideas just started coming out. I was ready to start writing.

In 1988, Davol produced a short demo tape as a present for some friends. They passed it on to other friends and in turn, one of them brought it to the attention of James Marienthal, president of Silver Wave Records. Marienthal liked what he heard and backed up his interest with a recording contract for the project that became Mystic Waters.
