Devlan James grew up in New York City, the youngest of five kids in a family with a strong musical heritage—his grandfather was a popular bandleader in the ’40s and ’50s. Devlan started his professional music career as a studio and touring musician, but in 2010 he started putting together a band in Nashville to record his own songs, and before long he was jamming with guitarist Danny Parks (The Amazing Rhythm Aces), keyboardist Jimmy Wallace, (Kenny Wayne Shepherd), bassist Don Kerce (Aaron Neville) and drummer Paul Scholten (Brooks & Dunn). The results can now be sampled on “My Little Wild Thing,” one of 10 tasty new tracks on Devlan’s debut album, The Lookout.
