Jennie DeVoe

".Jennie DeVoe is an endearing soul-blues singer who radiates the vibe of a 21st century flower child. Her potent gospel voice tames any crowd she encounters. DeVoe is now inhabiting the dangerous, psychedelic space of icon Janis Joplin. Fireworks & Karate Supplies is an important and irresistible leap forward. Consider all DeVoe’s dues paid with this record." David Lindquist, The Indianapolis Star
"Beyond DeVoe's compelling sound - her soulful, hippie-funk vocals - is her
hypnotic, manic energy. She is capable of engaging totally, locking eyes,
her conversation instantly confessional and intimate, wacky and profound as
she rockets from topic to topic. With her pierced nose, bohemian affectations,
there's a rowdiness about her, and to make her laugh is to bask in her particular
brand of strange sunshine. Fans, photographers, street vendors, babies and animals
seem to lean into what she radiates and work all the harder to keep the
attention coming. ( Her fears are dying of boredom and wearing pantyhose and
being tortured by the squeaky sound of balloons or Styrofoam). Fans compare
DeVoe to Janis Joplin, which she finds flattering but not quite right. DeVoe's vocals
have a wise, raw, human quality that reveal her to be more than a pretty-good-for-
a-local-girl kind of talent. Her lyrics are smart, kooky and often pleasingly simple.
In an industry increasingly hungering for music with emotional complexity and depth -
Jennie DeVoe has it."written by Cara McDonald, Indianapolis Monthly MagazineRedeeming, by Jennie DeVoe
"There's all kinds o' places we could go-
ends of the earth or the other side of the road-
I just want someone to wag their tail
when I walk through the door -
You see I was a girl once on a dashboard in a grass skirt -
you were a long day in a living room -
honest days work and I'd dance for you -
and you'd ask me to move so you could see -
Hawaii five-0 on the TV -
and you'll need Redeeming
