Biography
Jonathan Davis—singer, songwriter, and musician—became the defining voice of nu metal as Korn's lead vocalist and frontman. Born January 18, 1971, in the US, he co-founded Korn in Bakersfield in 1993 after the dissolution of two bands, Sexart and L.A.P.D., where he had worked as an assistant coroner. His trademark vocals—alternating between angry tones and high-pitched atmospheric screams—drove Korn's influence across generations of musicians.
Beyond the band, Davis expanded into film scoring, writing and producing the Queen of the Damned soundtrack with Richard Gibbs from 2000 to 2001. He launched Jonathan Davis and the SFA as a side project in 2007 and released his first solo album in 2018, experimenting across metal, rap, world, and electronic genres. A multi-instrumentalist, he plays guitar, drums, bagpipes, piano, upright bass, violin, and clarinet, and performs DJ sets under his alter ego JDevil.
As a Capricorn born in 1971, Davis embodies Life Path 1 ambition—pioneering, determined, and unapologetic in artistic vision. His achievements reflect decades of relentless work: fourteen albums in the Billboard 200 top 10, two Grammy Awards from eight nominations, fifteen RIAA platinum certifications in the US, eight ARIA platinum in Australia, and six UK gold certifications. Over 40 million albums sold worldwide. Davis has long channeled his passions—visual arts, horror films, comics, video games—into his creative output.
