Carefree / Euphoria

Both albums together on one cassette. Edition of 250 copies.

Carefree, Devon Williams' debut album, has a melodic complexity that belies its immediacy, and descends from a lineage of great music. Those yearning for a return to intelligent pop music--songs as gratifying on their 1,963th listen as they are memorable after their first--need look no further.

Devon Williams's shimmering pop tempers sweetness and bliss with an honest, unguarded perspective. His tunes are informed by broad musical knowledge and diverse tastes; while the past echoes through them, his songwriting skills, strong musical voice and arrangement / production prowess mark him as a truly unique talent. The past can be a window on the present, and Williams's distinctive blend of power pop, orchestrated soft rock, folk rock and jangle-pop takes full flight on Euphoria.
