A jewel of Canada's Soul scene, Claire Davis takes it up a notch and showcases her mighty vocals on the fiery breakup single "Long Gone". Drawing from her influences of the likes of Etta James and Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, the unrelenting rhythm and sassy background vocals of this track complement the "take-no-mess" message of Davis' lyrics and vocal delivery. A song about knowing your worth and walking away from those who don't! Claire Davis is an analog enthusiast, opting to record to tape whenever possible to best capture the feel and energy of a live performance and this single does not disappoint. The track was co-written by Toronto based artist Kyla Charter and producer Scott McCannell whom Davis has excitedly collaborated with for years on various other projects in Toronto's R&B/Soul scene. The saucy background vocal arrangement from composer/arranger La-Nai Gabriel provided the icing on the cake for this record which features dynamic background vocals from Joanna Mohammed, Tegan Michelle Gordon, and Chynna Lewis.

With a performance fit for smoke-filled jazz lounges and a spotlight, “Long Gone” showcases Davis’ powerhouse vocal abilities, letting her message come across “crystal clear”. - Dusty Organ

Coming in at 2 minutes and 43 seconds, “Long Gone” packs a soulful punch in a short time. Claire’s vocals possess intensity and strength while remaining somewhat mellow. Claire’s singing voice on the track is the shining star. Her vocal range seems infinite, and once you add in the backing vocals and music, a track that’s nothing short of perfection is born. - Canadian Beats Media Jenna Melanson
