Here at The Gob we aim to amplify - and signal boost - all things that kick ass in the musical sphere. So when a friend (or a friend of a friend) makes noise, we shout it from the rooftops, and crank it to 11!
We’ve individually had the honor of hosting Devon Thompson on her East Coast tour…Brooklyn and Jersey represent! We can’t WAIT to see her again but until then…we’re just going to have to head over to the March Gibson Spotify Playlist.
Her vibe is so badass and Devon is serious about her craft. She’s not afraid to go to the dark side…with her emotional vocals, songwriting and glorious guitar work.
After listening to Devon’s new single “Poison Me” on the Gibson playlist, come meet us in the comments section over on the Gibson Gram! Here is what Devon herself has to say about the haunting track:
“It’s a play on the classic Snow White take, but we twisted it… I modified the story in which Snow White actually WANTED to bite that apple. All she wants is eternal peace, a dreamless slumber in the concept of time. There she will be happy where no-one is bothering her."
On the Gibson Instagram, Devon is featured alongside Zach Person. We don’t know this Zach Person person (yet), but we know he’s in good company - so he must be awesome.
While playlists are great, the live thing is so much better! Catch Devon on 3/28 at the Gibson Artists Showcase where she will be playing songs off her upcoming EP Skin, produced by James Salter (The Raveonettes, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club).
Want to delve into a Devon Thompson discography deep dive? There’s no wrong place to start…but we love “Soft Like Water”.
Thank us later.
