Following the group's disbandment in 1983, Davis established the ensemble Chanteuse. She performed as a background singer for Lamonte Zodiac & the Love Signs and Big Chief. In 1994, she released the solo EP Shout Out to the Dusthuffer through Sub Pop. Her debut studio recording, Sunday Morning Music, appeared in 1996 and featured the song “Cry”, which was used in the television series The Sopranos. Davis collaborated on recordings with Kid Rock and Bob Seger. Her discography featured the live recording Covered Live at the Music Menu (2000) and the studio album Honest Woman (2016).
