Event Notes
A cross-pollination of numerous influences, including cabaret, spaghetti Westerns, norteño, punk, and the immigrant dance music of Eastern Europe, DeVotchKa emerged in the mid-2000s with a soulful blend of modern indie music with a global flavor. Featuring multi-instrumentalists Nick Urata (vocals, guitar, trumpet), Tom Hagerman (violin, accordion), Jeanie Schroder (sousaphone, bass) and percussionist Shawn King, Devotchka found widespread success in 2006 with their Grammy-nominated soundtrack to the hit film Little Miss Sunshine. The band has released six acclaimed albums, including their most recent recording “This Night Falls Forever.”
