Jason DeVore Releases, ”Til The Voice Goes Out”
First inspired by the songwriting and music of Jeff Buckley, Jason DeVore made his solo work effortlessly by melding rock ‘n’ roll, folk, punk, reggae, classical, and gospel influences into a vibrant, fresh, and exhilarating sound that is simultaneously daring and innovative, yet unmistakably embodies his incomparable style.
Collaborating with talents such as Bob Hoag (known for his work with The Ataris, Dear and The Headlights, The Format), who produced (with additional production by Jason DeVore and Kristen Taylor), co-engineered and mixed 11 of the album’s 12 tracks, three-time Grammy Award-winner Tom Lord-Alge (credited with projects for Blink-182, Weezer, Fall Out Boy, The Rolling Stones), who mixed the album’s opening track and lead single (“Turn It Off!”), and Grammy Award-winner Jason Livermore (recognized for his work with Rise Against, NOFX, Hot Water Music, Descendents) who mastered the album at The Blasting Room in Fort Collins, Colorado, ”Til The Voice Goes Out’ showcases a seasoned DeVore who has reached unparalleled heights in both songwriting and musicianship.
More About Jason DeVore
For 30 years, he has been known the world over as both a solo artist and the lead singer of Authority Zero, a band who, alongside alt-rock stalwarts Jimmy Eat World and Gin Blossoms, helped put Arizona on the musical map.
Formed in Mesa, Arizona, Authority Zero quickly dialed in a signature blend of anthemic melodic punk rock with reggae and southwestern influences that perfectly showcased DeVore’s powerful, emotive, and dynamic voice, as evidenced by songs like “One More Minute”, “Revolution”, and the band’s cover of “Mexican Radio”.
For the first decade of the band’s existence, during which time two major-label releases were written and recorded, DeVore was content with writing songs exclusively for Authority Zero. That all changed when he first heard Jeff Buckley.
