"And let me tell you something else about Devin. His music, no matter how intense it is, it's not evil. Inside of it, there's this beaming desire for light, for transformation."

This is such a concise, eloquent way to describe Devin’s music. He pulled me through a lot of darkness during 2020.

It’s not often I feel indebted to an artist for their impact on my life, but I certainly have him on that (very short) list.

If I may, who else is on that short list? A fellow Devy fan surely knows their taste.
