Romancing

Devin's prose to a time-honoured tradition of red-hot rock and roll is all over his debut album 'Romancing'. The beginnings of 'Romancing' were founded while he was working at a Brooklyn shipping warehouse. "I was working a terrible job and living with a roommate in a basement apartment in Park Slope-a little s**thole with no windows. We were both single and pretty much depressed, not doing anything. Absolutely nothing was happening; I hated New York and everyone I knew. I was like - Maybe I'll move to Germany." he recalls. It was during this time that he began writing his first 'good songs'. "I'd been writing before that, but they were pretty terrible. I mean, really bad. But then I started working with these classic forms that everyone understands: rock and roll, rhythm and blues. I never knew I could pull off rock, but I wrote some songs and I could tell I didn't suck anymore." The Australian version features two bonus tracks.
