biography
Breaking in from an Unlikely source, Los Angeles based Devon Drake, who for the better part of five years has always been a strangely well known experimental rock artist has decided to go back to his Country roots. Enjoying the fact that he is a solo multi-instrumentalist singer/songwriter, Devon is beholdent to no fences of creativity. In the upcoming Debut Release "Crimes against Country" Drake, takes a very different approach to country music. Filled with Rebellion, Ballad Anthem, Pop Melody Honky Tonk, captain crunch of blues and rock driven style music, that is sure to turn heads.. In his single release, "That Ain't Country", Drake pokes fun at a great deal of Modern Country Musicians.
Born and raised in the Dust bowl of West Texas, having ridden bulls for fun and prize and being a great story teller (his own stories for a change), Drake is sure to not only entertain, but bring country back to music that doesn't focus on the same monotony each and every song. Sure there is Whiskey and Beer, but it doesnt have to be in every song.
Look for this album to be released in the Autumn, the Single "That Aint Country" is already receiving generous spins in select markets.
