Background notes
Archive material and source history
Sangie Davis was born in Oklahoma City in 1903 and grew up around blues and jazz. She started performing with touring bands in the 1920s, developing a vocal style that mixed soulful harmonies with scat singing.
In 1924, she recorded "Jingling Keys," which became her most recognized song. She kept recording through the decade with tracks like "Keep Shufflin'" and "Dead Broke Blues." As a Black woman performing in that era, she faced racial prejudice, and her lyrics about love and independence sometimes drew criticism from more conservative listeners.
