Devlin Live in New York
author: Cuauhtemoc Q Kish
This sassy CD transforms the listener into an audience participant; you feel the vibes as if you were looking into the very eyes of the singer herself. She soars, she's soulful, she's playful; she's IN COMMAND. She plays her instrument like a pro, nuancing her voice into moods of melody. She paints the emotions with notes, giving us a night to remember, and a night--THANK THE GODDESS ABOVE--that we can replay over and over and over again.

DEVLIN - LIVE IN NEW YORK
author: Gregory Rice
I was fortunate enough to be present on this very special eve for the recording of \"Devlin - Live in New York\". As described, Devlin can sing straight to your heart in a wide variety of styles - whether it\'s the emotional heartache of Rick Jensen\'s haunting \"The Heart Knows\" or the heartfelt and compelling \"Mama\" Cass Elliot tribute - Devlin truly does hit the ball right out of the cabaret ballpark. She\'s a brave and smart \"new\" talent. She\'s also a lot of fun!! Do yourself a big favor in these troubled times, and purchase this very enjoyable Cd. She\'ll make your evening a memorable one and who could possibly ask for anything more?!

DEVLIN TAKES NEW YORK
author: Anthony Regina
An extraordinary actress and powerhouse singer, Devlin delivers a solid performance in her CD debut.
Devlin turns songs like “Cry To Me”, Amanda McBroom’s “Wheels”, and “The Heart Knows” (written by her accompanist, veteran music director Rick Jensen), into three-act plays. Exhibiting great control of a voice that is capable of soaring to the heights, she never sacrifices the meaning and tone of what she is singing just for a flashy moment.
Devlin uses her extraordinary instrument when it counts most. “Louisiana Sunday Afternoon” shows off all the shades of her distinctive voice.
“Wild Women (Don’t Get The Blues)”, a Cass Elliot chestnut, begins a tribute to that often overlooked singer that is a highlight of the set. A strong version of Laura Nyro’s “Time And Love” is the penultimate number of this impressive debut.
