Caroline Davis and Caili O'Doherty have been working together in New York in various contexts for the past two years. From playing original music to standards and educational workshops, they have created a unique bond through the music.

Caili, a native Oregonian, has received national awards for jazz piano performance and composition from Downbeat Magazine as well as an ASCAP Foundation Young Jazz Composer award. She has performed with various jazz groups at the Monterey Jazz Festival, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Kimmel Center (opening for pianist Martial Solal), Panama Jazz Festival (opening for the Wayne Shorter Quartet), Guinness Cork Jazz Festival, and UNESCO First International Jazz Day, as well as two US State Dept. supported tours to Colombia and Togo and Benin in West Africa. She released her debut album entitled “Padme” in 2015, comprised of nine original compositions.
