He is a cool indie solo artists and i like to play his songs and I like him just as he is and i think its better that he isn't really big because he wouldn't be indie if not it makes it uncool to be listened to loads
Hes in a Band called Lightspeed Champions and is signed to domino records in the UK i saw him at O2 wireless last year was at the front top top band have you seen the starwars song Dev is a huge fan
he is brilliant, but it doesn't have anything to do with him being black. i think it's good that he's not all mainstream and shit. indie is the way to go. if you get all popular and wrapped up in success, then the whole idea of making music for a living is pointless...
Yay, Yay, LightSpeed!! Lightspeed is hot. I mean like he must be burning up in that hat and jacket. I didn't get it at first... i get it , he just rules!!
What is so great is how fantastic the acoustic version is versus the over-produced, over-whelming studio versions. The fantastic instrumentals and vocals of just Dev really make this fantastic. The talent is un-paralleled and that, my friends, is rare these days. An artist with talent. A recording of this would be a fantastic release, and the community welcomes it. Go go Lightspeed Champion!
i love the version of Tell Me What its Worth on here. the guitar part during the first chorus is awesome. I like these better than the album versions actually. He needs more solo acoustic tracks.

"Falling Off The Lavender Bridge" is a great debut album. Definitely check Dev out if you haven't already yet, he's a very talented musician; great instrumentalist, superb vocalist, and wonderful songwriting, especially the string harmonies on the album. In my opinion, one of the top albums so far of 2008.
Guitaristartist13, I think Fnac should carry it, they generally have a fairly wide variety of music. I don't know if they sell it in stores, but I think you can order it from the Fnac website.

Damn, the acoustic version of No Surprise is sick. It's almost hard to believe that the end of it is just one guitar. He is so talented.

its cool to be underground and indie. but dev takes indie to another level, and he most certainly deserves to be mainstream.

I know it's different from typical "black" music, but it doesn't matter about the colour of his skin at all.
He can play and sing,
it's easy to connect to his songs
he is just amazing in general!
